Ferryside railway station serves the seaside village of Ferryside, Carmarthenshire, Wales. The station was opened by the South Wales Railway on 11 October 1852 and is now an unmanned stop. It is 238 miles 51 chains (384.0 km) from the zero point at London Paddington, measured via Stroud.[1]
There is a level crossing near the station as well as a manually operated signal box, which in 2016 was listed as being due for computerisation. The 1905 Ordnance Survey map shows the presence of a goods shed with a single line running through it and points at either side leading on to the main line. In July 2015, the Welsh Government funded the installation of reinforced glass fibre 'humps' on the platforms to improve access for wheelchair and pushchair users onto and off trains.
Services
There is a basic two-hourly service in each direction (with extras at peak periods). Many westbound trains terminate at Carmarthen, but a few continue to either Milford Haven or Pembroke Dock in the morning and late afternoon. Most eastbound trains continue beyond Swansea to Cardiff Central, Hereford and Manchester Piccadilly. Services are less frequent on Sundays.[2]
