Cynghordy railway station ({{pronunciation|Cynghordy.ogg|Welsh pronunciation|help=no}}) serves the rural community of Cynghordy near Llandovery, Carmarthenshire, Wales.

The station is on the Heart of Wales Line 46¾ miles (75 km) north east of Swansea. The station is located at street level at the end of a gravel track off a lane that is just off the main A483 road. The station had no facilities whatsoever for many years (see picture, right) but a shelter has recently been provided along with a customer help point and CIS screen.[1]

After departing this station heading northbound, the train crosses the Cynghordy Viaduct where panoramic views of the surrounding countryside can be seen. The grade II* listed 18-arch viaduct carries the route across the Afon Bran valley on a gentle curve - it is 102 feet (31 m) high and 850 ft (259 m) long and was built from sandstone and brick between 1867 and 1868.[2]

Services

All trains serving the station are operated by Transport for Wales (who also manage it). There are four trains a day in each direction (towards Swansea and {{stnlnk|Shrewsbury}}) from Monday to Saturday, and two services on Sundays.[3] This is a request stop, whereby passengers have to give a hand signal to the approaching train driver to board or notify the guard when they board that they wish to alight from the train there.
