Through Whitland railway station
From the station footbridge. The passenger shelters on platform 2 contrast with the long canopy over platform 1. The bay platform on the left is not in regular use, but the absence of weeds suggests that the line alongside it is used occasionally. In the distance, the line to Pembroke Dock diverges from the line to Milford Haven.

South side of Whitland railway station
Viewed from the station footbridge. http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4488089 The two platforms on the right are used for scheduled services.
The absence of weeds on and alongside the track at the bay (dead end) platform suggests that
this platform is used occasionally, though trains do not usually terminate at Whitland.

Long platforms at Whitland railway station
Much longer than trains (2 or 3 coaches) stopping here in May 2015, the platforms extend for nearly 200 metres.

Weeds cover a long disused line of the north side of Whitland railway station
Viewed in May 2015. This is a long disused former bay platform at Whitland, a railway station much reduced from its former glory. Now only two platforms are in regular use, though the bay platform http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4486847 on the other side of the station looks to be used occasionally. Penderi Furniture http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4486833 is on the right.

Whitland railway station
Two trains pass each other in Whitland station - neither appears to be an Arriva train though, the main company that operates this line - other companies occasionally run services along this line too.
Just beyond the station, the branch (to the left) to Pembroke Dock can be seen just beyond the semaphore signal.
