Information boards at Ammanford railway station
Near the station entrance from Station Road. Ammanford is on the Heart of Wales Line between Pantyffynnon station to the south and Llandybie station to the north. The turquoise colour shows that this station is managed by Arriva Trains Wales. The company also runs all the trains.
The station was originally part of the Llanelly Railway which was later absorbed by the LNWR (London and North Western Railway), which became part of the LMS (London, Midland and Scottish Railway) at the Grouping in 1923. The names show that the old railway companies were not limited to the areas in their name. This route from Shrewsbury to Swansea gave the LNWR a foothold in South Wales, which was mainly Great Western Railway territory.
