Background
History
Opened by the Mid Wales Railway, then operated by the Cambrian Railways, it became part of the Great Western Railway. Passing on to the Western Region of British Railways on nationalisation in 1948, it was then closed by the British Transport Commission. Author Shaun Sewell quotes a diarist as writing about the station, in 1877, that the reader should "Please imagine a wooden hut about 12 feet long ... divided by a partition ... and he will have a very good idea of Aberedw Railway Station".
