Background

History

The station was incorporated into the Great Western Railway during the Grouping of 1923, passing on to the Western Region of British Railways on nationalisation in 1948. Passenger services were discontinued in 1951 and freight in 1963. The station was host to a GWR camp coach from 1934 to 1939. A camping coach was also positioned here by the Western Region from 1952 to 1956, the coach was joined by another so there were two coaches from 1957 to 1962. The last freight train left Aberaeron on 2 April 1965. The station site was later built over for commercial use.
