Rhiwfron railway station is a railway station serving Rhiwfron in Ceredigion in Mid-Wales. It is an intermediate station on the preserved Vale of Rheidol Railway.
A station or halt has existed here since the opening of the line, but with few facilities beyond the provision of a nameboard. During 2013 the station was considerably enhanced following a grant for rural infrastructure development from the European Union. The station now has a raised and surfaced platform, fencing, and an ornate station building constructed in the style of architecture employed by the original owners of the railway.
