Akshually® I think this is no longer the longest railway station name in Wales - therre is a place up by Aberystwyth which changed its name to one of these "little hollow by the third rock from the green tree in a large field that my Auntie Blodwen used to own" kinda inventions - don't know if I can dig up the details, but. :)

Dear Maverick,
As a collector of life's more quirky trivia I should be very interested in that new Welsh Station name if you come across it again. There's always something new.....

This one maybe? There is a 66-letter place name in Wales, according to Dr. David Crystal's Encyclopedia of Language: GORSAFAWDDACHAIDRAIGODANHEDDOGLEDDOLONPENRHYNAREURDRAETHCEREDIGION, meaning "the Mawddach station and its dragon teeth at the Northern Penrhyn Road on the golden beach of Cardigan bay."http://members.aol.com/gulfhigh2/words12.html
