Celynen North Halt railway station served the town of Abercarn, in the historical county of Glamorganshire, from 1936 to 1962 on the Monmouthshire Railway.

History

The station was opened on 10 August 1936 by the Great Western Railway. It didn't appear in the timetable as it was only open to the miners of the nearby Celynen Colliery. It closed on 30 April 1962.{{cite book|last=Quick|first=M E|title=Railway passenger stations in England, Scotland and Wales - a chronology|year=2002|publisher=Railway and Canal Historical Society|location=Richmond|page=118|oclc=931112387}}{{cite book|last=Butt|first=R.V.J.|title=The Directory of Railway Stations|year=1995|publisher=Patrick Stephens Ltd|location=Yeovil|isbn=1-85260-508-1|id=R508|page=57}}
