A single track railway crosses the road named Llanion Cottages. There is an unusual arrangement at this ungated level crossing. A train approaching the crossing stops at a trackside Stop sign, http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4394929 sounds its horn, then proceeds slowly over the crossing. This location is less than 600 metres from the end of the line at Pembroke Dock, so stopping here is only a minor inconvenience for a train travelling in either direction. Most of the time, there is no vehicle on, or about to use, the crossing. Almost all the houses hereabouts are north of the crossing (ahead).
