From 1864 to 1916 the station was called Llanfihangel, after which the name was changed to Llandre.

Not sure whether I can go now or not!

It must be round about 2012 on the discussion current at that time about this very same matter, in which confusion occurred as whilst the station you named indeed was the original station name that was eventually changed, there is another Llanfihangel station on the Newport, Abergavenny and Hereford Railway (sometimes with a localised variation spelling of Llanvihangel) that we have met on that line many times on this quiz, being opened on 2nd January 1854 and closed on 9th June 1958. In this case, that station never had a name change.

However, award yourself a gold star for attention to detail, but there has now been another posting made after yours.
