LLANHILLETH train station was officially up and running today, after months of delays.

The single platform was originally supposed to be open at the same time as the other stations on the railway line.

But as the Argus reported last year, building work at Llanhilleth was delayed after slow worms - a protected species - were found onsite.

The line itself, had also suffered delays and after claims that it should be open by Christmas time, did not open until Wednesday February 6 this year.

Were you one of the first people to use the station today?
