Grouping: Merthyr and Roath Branch Junction closed in 1923; Cowbridge in 1924; Aberdare in 1927; Abercynon and Penarth Dock in 1929; Radyr and Treherbert in 1931; Coke Ovens in 1933. In the cases of Abercynon, Radyr and Treherbert, the TVR sheds were all replaced by new GWR sheds on nearby sites, and that at Abercynon also accommodated the locomotives from Coke Ovens when that closed in 1933. Only three TVR locomotive depots survived to be inherited by British Railways: Pwllyrhebog (closed July 1951); Ferndale (closed September 1964) and Cathays (closed November 1964); and of these, only Cathays was given a BR code in 1949 - 88A.

The GWR line was broad-gauge and the branch to Cowbridge was accessed from the Llantrisant and Taff Vale Junction Railway. Trains from Pontypridd ran over the final section of the Ely Valley Railway and across the South Wales Main Line to the Cowbridge Railway terminus where they had to reverse to continue.

A year later, in August 1878, the TVR transferred all of its passenger services to the High Street station and used Plymouth Street as a goods depot instead. High Street station thus became the only passenger station in Merthyr and was used by a total of six separate companies prior to the 1922 grouping. The TVR also opened stations at

The mineral output from the mines there could now more conveniently be brought out via Quakers Yard, avoiding the incline on the Llancaiach branch, which was closed except for a short section at the north end.

The opening of the Penarth Docks proved a huge benefit to the company, not only in bringing in direct revenue, but in easing congestion on the main line as mineral trains were diverted from Radyr. Enormous volumes were moved through the docks: 2.8 million tons in 1885. The Penarth Harbour, Dock and

Relief lines were constructed at Pontypridd in the 1890s, enabling goods trains to pass the station and wait for a clear path without interfering with passenger trains. Between 1907 and 1914 the station was rebuilt as a single long island platform with numerous bays. This work included raising the

In 1900 the branch was extended northward to join the earlier Llancaiach branch, at Ynysdwr Junction, opening to traffic on 1 June 1900. A passenger service operated from Pontypridd to Nelson on the TVR line a little short of the junction with the Taff Vale Extension line and did not use the GWR

The Taff Bargoed Joint Line had been authorised in 1867 and there were certain protections in its act for the company, including running powers over it. In 1872 the company presented a parliamentary bill to build on that, making a new railway to Llancaiach, with new connections to the Taff Vale

The original Llancaiach branch, opened in 1841, had left the Merthyr main line at Stormstown Junction, just south of Abercynon, crossed the River Taff and swung east to reach its objective. After a period of dormancy, in 1878 a deviation was built to avoid the rope-worked incline, but due to a

The emphasis throughout the 19th century existence of the TVR had been on mineral traffic. When Ammon Beasley became General Manager in 1891 he sought to increase the passenger income of the company, particularly in the face of street-running passenger tramcars. In 1903 he introduced steam

The TVR possessed over 460 locomotives at one time or another. There were 275 in service at the start of 1922, when the TVR amalgamated with the GWR and other railways. 104 of these lasted long enough to be inherited by British Railways (BR) at the start of 1948.

The Rhymney Railway was the main competitor to the TVR in bringing coal down from the valleys. For many years, until 1871, this involved Rhymney Railway coal trains running over the TVR main line from Walnut Tree to Cardiff. The line was extremely congested.
