Aberthaw Low Level railway station was the Taff Vale Railway station which served Aberthaw, located near the north shore of the Bristol Channel in the Welsh county of Glamorganshire.

Opened by the Taff Vale Railway it became part of the Great Western Railway during the Grouping of 1923. It was then closed by them seven years later.

The site is now a wooded area next to the former site of the High Level station. Passenger trains pass there on the Vale of Glamorgan line and freight trains for Aberthaw Power Station. There is no station at Aberthaw now.
