The two places I would check ...
https://www.railfuture.org.uk/display1638

And ACoRP (Association of Community Rail Partnerships) - looking for a stations friends group / may be a phone call or email?

Also ask the train operator who should know

My personal quick look drew a blank - actually for most of the Valley Lines as a whole ... please fill us in if you find user  and / or campaign group(s) around.

Not seeing Caerphilly in either list, and not seeing details of how to contact the groups for the adopted stations ...
