Barry Pier railway station was a railway station in Barry Island, in Wales. It was the terminus of the Barry Island branch line and opened in 1899 when the line was extended from Barry Island railway station.[1] There was a tunnel connecting the two railway stations. Barry Pier station was closed in 1976, and is now disused but remains intact for further use.
