Cwm railway station served the village of Cwm in Monmouthshire, Wales.

History

The station was originally opened by the Monmouthshire Railway and Canal Company on 19 April 1852. It became part of the Great Western Railway in 1880 and remained there at the Grouping of 1923. The line then passed on to the Western Region of British Railways on nationalisation in 1948. The station was closed to passengers by the British Transport Commission on 30 April 1962, remaining open for goods traffic until 4 November 1963.

Present day

A new station on the Ebbw Valley Railway, which would serve the community of Cwm, South Wales has been proposed. Planning permission has not yet been granted, and the station was not included in the first stage of the line reopening plan, which created a passenger service between Cardiff Central and Ebbw Vale Parkway in 2008.
