History
Opened by the Great Western Railway, the station passed on to the Western Region of British Railways on nationalisation in 1948. It was closed by the British Transport Commission.
The station near the river was the Blaengwynfi station, which was on the Swansea Bay line.
The site today
The site is a small wooded area in the village, next to the River Gwynfi.
gollark: This is in the reactor planner, not the mod itself.
gollark: I mean, it seems to be making it only actually work if there are no fuel cells? This makes no sense.
gollark: ```csharp public void UpdateStats() { if (FindAdjacentFuelCells() == 0) { HeatGenerationPerTick = Reactor.usedFuel.BaseHeat * Configuration.Fission.HeatGeneration; Reactor.totalHeatPerTick += HeatGenerationPerTick; Active = false; } else { HeatGenerationPerTick = 0; Active = true; }}```
gollark: I'm looking at the code for it and have absolutely no idea how or why it works.
gollark: I'm trying to figure out how moderators work. I have no idea any more.
