Not so, unfortunately, as that station was on the Pont Shon Norton branch line of the Taff Vale Railway, which branched off just after Berw Road Halt on the main line.

HINT ... there are still three closed stations to name on this main line, before we then are able to access the final line on this journey, that being the Cardiff Railway.

Wretched industrial South Wales ! -- I like it, though -- shortly off out for a few hours, won't muddy the waters until back again.
