Llanrhystyd Road railway station was located on the Carmarthen to Aberystwyth Line, originally called the Manchester and Milford Railway, before being transferred to the GWR.
History
The station opened in August 1867 to serve the nearby village. The station closed in December 1964 when services were truncated at Strata Florida, following flood damage by the River Ystwyth to the line one mile east of Llanilar. Formal closure was confirmed two months later. The station had a single platform, a small shelter, a ground frame, and a goods passing loop. The station had a simple corrugated iron shelter and a signal box on the single platform.
