Penpergwm railway station was a former station which served the Monmouthshire, Wales, village of Penpergwm, although the community adjacent to the station was very small and it could equally be said to have served the larger village of Llangattock Nigh Usk (Llangatwg Dyffryn Wysg in Welsh) which lay less than 1⁄2 mile (0.8 km) away to the east. It was located on the Welsh Marches Line between Pontypool (formerly Pontypool Road) and Abergavenny.
The former station house is now a private residence.
The station closed in 1958. The double line remains in use and carries a regular service of trains between Cardiff, Newport and Hereford.
