About your departure station

The station's utilitarian design reflected its industrial purpose.
Surviving steelworks closures through community use, it avoided Beeching cuts but saw reduced services.

Handling 30,000 annual passengers, it maintains vital transport links for this former industrial valley.
Pentre Bach's history embodies the resilience of Welsh communities, where railways originally built for heavy industry now serve social and economic regeneration in post industrial landscapes.
