Llandyssul formerly Llandyssil
(1864 - 1952)
Llandyssil Station opened on June 3 1864 when the Carmarthen & Cardigan Railway was extended from its temporary terminus at Pencader
The station had a single platform on the down up side of the line with a reversing loop opposite the platform
A goods yard was on the up side, behind the passenger station, it comprised two sidings terminating either side of a loading dock behind the platform, one of which passed through a large goods shed. A third siding ran along the north side of the yard passing a cattle dock and pens to terminate close to a saw-mill at the entrance to the goods yard
The Teifi Valley around Llandyssul was the home of the Welsh woollen industry
The line extension to Newcastle Emlyn was opened on July 1 1895. The station and goods yard were altered and a second platform was built which had a brick-built waiting room with a canopy. An additional siding was added and a 1 ton crane was installed for loading the large quantities of timber that were handled by the station.
The passenger service was withdrawn on September 15 1952, but the station remained open for goods traffic. Goods services were withdrawn from September 6 1965
The station site is lost under the Llandyssul bypass. A grain warehouse and a saw-mill are still standing in the goods yard but the yard has recently been sold for redevelopment. The stationmaster's house, which overlooks the station site, is in private occupation
