The Ynysybwl branch line railway, formally … The Ynysybwl branch line railway, formally known as the Clydach Valley Branch, was opened by the Taff Vale Railway company in 1885 to serve collieries that were expected to open in the Clydach Valley, Glamorganshire, South Wales. The branch line made a junction with the main line of the Taff Vale Railway at Stormstown, between Pontypridd and Abercynon (the station was then called Aberdare Junction). In fact the colliery development was limited, but the Lady Windsor Colliery became productive in 1886 and had a large output. A passenger service to Ynysybwl was started in 1890, but it was not until the introduction of "motor cars", steam railmotor units that could stop at low-cost stopping places, and a diversion of the main line terminal to Pontypridd, that the passenger service was successful. The "Clydach Court Loop" was built to enable direct running to Pontypridd. Nevertheless, the passenger income declined after 1918 and it was discontinued after 26 July 1952. Lady Windsor Colliery closed in 1988 resulting in the total closure of the branch line.g in the total closure of the branch line.
