St Athan Road railway station : ウィキペディア英語版 | St Athan Road railway station
St Athan Road railway station served the village of St Athan in the Vale of Glamorgan in South Wales. ==History== The station was built by the Cowbridge and Aberthaw Railway, and opened along with the line on 1 October 1892.〔Chapman 1984, p. 61.〕 As with St Mary Church Road, the preceding station on the line, St Athan Road was not very near the village it served, lying about a mile to the east. It also saw traffic from Llancadle, Aberthaw and Gileston.〔Chapman 1984, p. 65.〕 From the start, St Athan Road was little-used. The line had been built with the intention of serving a new port at Aberthaw.〔Hall 2009, p. 89.〕 When the plans for the port were abandoned, the Cowbridge and Aberthaw Railway fell swiftly into financial trouble and had to be absorbed by the Taff Vale Railway in 1895.〔Chapman 1984, p. 67.〕 St Athan Road closed on 5 May 1930. The station staff were withdrawn and their remaining duties were transferred to the staff of Gileston station.〔Chapman 1984, p. 103.〕
