Rhydyfelin (High Level) Halt railway station once served the village of Rhydyfelin in South Wales.

History

The station opened in 1904 on the Pontypridd, Caerphilly and Newport Railway to cater to the new railmotor service on the line. As opened, it consisted of a single ground-level wooden platform made of old sleepers and a level crossing, also at ground-level. In 1922, the station was renamed to avoid confusion with the similarly-named halt on the former Cardiff Railway, which subsequently became Rhydyfelin (Low Level) Halt.[1] In 1928, the original halt was closed and a new one was built at {{coord|51.5886|-3.3107|type:railwaystation_region:GB|display=inline|name=Rhydyfelin (High Level) Halt, post-1928}}. This had two wooden platforms and a corrugated tin shelter.

Closure

The halt closed in 1953 and no trace of it remains. The trackbed is now part of the Treforest-Nantgarw cycleway.[2]
