DescriptionSt Briavels railway station (geograph 5419387).jpg
English: St Briavels railway station The Wye Valley railway was opened on 1st November 1876 and ran from Tutshill (Chepstow) to Monmouth, a distance of almost 14 miles. The station at St Briavels was known as Bigsweir until 1909, and it closed to both passengers and goods traffic on 5th January 1959. A special 'last train' passed through on the following day, carrying more than 400 passengers. The locomotive on that day was pannier tank 6412, which like the station here has survived and can be seen on the South Devon Railway. The station now is the headquarters of a private fishing club.
