Pontyrhyl railway station, also known as Pontrhyll, served the village of Pont-y-rhyl in Glamorgan, Wales. It was on the Garw Valley Railway and had two platforms. The station opened on 25 October 1886, built by the Great Western Railway. It was first called Pontyrhyll, but the spelling changed to Pontyrhyl in August 1887. It appeared as Pont-y-rhyll in 1899, and the hyphens were removed in 1904. The station closed on 9 February 1953. The track remains, and the station building is now a private residence.
