Abertillery railway station was a station which served Abertillery, in the Welsh county of Monmouthshire.
Among the lines built by the Monmouthshire Railway and Canal Company from Newport into the valleys was a 6-mile branch from Aberbeeg to Nantyglo, which was first opened as a tramroad in 1824 branching from the Llanhiledd Tramroad between Crumlin and Beaufort. The first timetabled passenger service began on 21 December 1850 from Newport Courtybella to Blaina via Abertillery. The line was converted to a railway in 1855 together with other Monmouth tramroads in the area. It became part of the Great Western Railway in 1880 and remained there at the Grouping of 1923.
