Briton Ferry East Railway Station

Briton Ferry East railway station served the town of Briton Ferry, in the historical county of Glamorganshire, Wales, from 1895 to 1935 on the Rhondda and Swansea Bay Railway.

History

The station was opened as Briton Ferry on 14 March 1895 by the Rhondda and Swansea Bay Railway. Its name was changed to Briton Ferry East on 1 July 1924 to distinguish it from Briton Ferry West. It closed on 16 September 1935 when it was replaced by the newer Briton Ferry station.
