The general service pattern is one train per hour to Cardiff Central via Bridgend, with most trains extended to Cheltenham Spa via Newport, Chepstow, Lydney and Gloucester.

Passenger services are operated by Arriva Trains Wales. There is a dedicated rail link bus that links with the train. It is only available to rail passengers and operates to Spelter, Caerau and Blaencaerau, serving the areas north of Maesteg, two of which Nantyffyllon and Caerau, had railway stations until 1970.
