The "Name the Station" game

[Purple Train]

5) An extra two trains per hour towards Cardiff are available from the next station south.

 

[RDP]

Newbridge?

 

[Purple Train]

I don't think it fits clue 5 under the current timetable.

 

[RDP]

Quakers Yard?

 

[Purple Train]

I don't think that fits clue 4, under the current timetable.

 

[Purple Train]

6) Excepting the COVID statistics, this station sees roughly 10,000 passengers annually.

 

[RDP]

The only station I can find which remotely fits is Brithdir but that appears to fail on clue 5 as the next station south, Bargoed, has a 15 minute interval service to Cardiff.

It is Brithdir.
I think you misread clue 5; I specified an extra two trains per hour towards Cardiff, i.e. two more trains per hour towards Cardiff than operate from Brithdir, which seems to be the case under the current timetable.
Your turn.
