From the Wikipedia article
Pontypridd railway station serves the town of Pontypridd in Rhondda Cynon Taf, Wales. It is located at the junction of the Merthyr line and the Rhondda line. It is between Treforest to the south, Trehafod to the northwest, and Abercynon to the northeast. It is sited 12 miles 75 chains (20.8 km) from Cardiff Docks (Bute Town). Until the 1930s, Pontypridd had two other stations. One, just behind the present station, was known as Pontypridd Graig. It closed in 1930. The other, Pontypridd Tram Road, serving the former Pontypridd to Newport line, closed in 1922. It was located near where this line crossed the 'Broadway' in Treforest.
