Crymmych Arms railway station

Crymmych Arms was a railway station in Crymych, Pembrokeshire, West Wales, on the Whitland and Cardigan line.

[3] The line, which was originally promoted by John Owen (a quarry owner in Glogue) and approved by Parliament under the title of the Whitland and Taf Vale Railway, reached Crymych in July 1874, though passenger service at Crymych did not commence until the following year.

The proposal to close the line actually came the year before the notorious Beeching Axe, marking a change in a whole way of life and the end of an era.

The line was closed to passenger traffic on 8 September 1962, the last train being the 5:45 pm Cardigan Mail.

The stations at Crymych and Cardigan initially remained open as non-rail connected freight terminals, but this was also short lived.
