Llandrindod Wells

Exterior of Llandrindod Wells station, Heart of Wales Line, on 2nd September 2017. This station opened in 1865 with the extension of the line from Knighton and was the temporary terminus until the line was further extended to Llandovery in 1868. The current timetable sees only four trains a day in each direction between Shrewsbury, and Swansea with trains to the latter reversing at Llanelli, as they have had to do since the closure (under the hapless Beeching cuts) of the direct line from Pontardulais to Swansea Victoria in 1964.
