Taw Valley Halt railway station is the current (and temporary) southern terminus of the Swindon and Cricklade Railway, a heritage railway line in Wiltshire, South-West England. The restored line was extended to the site of the halt in 2012,[1] and the halt was opened in 2014.
The halt is close to Mouldon Hill Country Park on the northwest outskirts of Swindon. Plans call for the line to be continued south to a new terminus at Mouldon Hill, within the park.[2]
