Aberangell railway station was a railway station on the Cambrian Railway branch which ran from Cemmaes Road to Dinas Mawddy in the Welsh county of Merionethshire. The station was opened by the Mawddwy Railway then closed by that company for ten years in the early 20th century. The station was the contact point between the branch and the Hendre-Ddu Tramway.
