Overview

Barry station opened in February 1889. It saw frequent trains hauling coal from the South Wales valleys to Barry’s world-famous docks. This industry helped make Barry prosperous in the years before it became a popular seaside resort.

This isn’t the only railway station serving Barry. There’s also Barry Island, Barry Docks and Cadoxton.

In 2014, the station was subject to a £200 million regeneration plan. This led to a third platform and improved signalling.

Barry has several retail districts and a cosmopolitan waterfront with shops, cafes and a thriving nightlife scene too. Need more inspiration? Check out our list of things to do in Barry Island and Barry.
