Overview

In 1852 the station was opened as Victoria, closing in April 1962. After serving as a freight-only line for nearly 50 years, the station reopened, with its new name of Ebbw Vale Parkway in 2008. Being used by more than 50,000 passengers in 2017/18, there was a big demand for this small station to reopen. The local MP, the late Peter Law, campaigned tirelessly to have the station reopened. There is a plaque to commemorate his achievements at the station.

A single platform station, Ebbw Vale Parkway station provides step-free access to all. You’ll need to buy your tickets in advance or from the conductor on the train as no ticket machines are available at the station.
