 The direct line to Swansea Victoria has also gone and the surviving passenger trains now run via the old Llanelly Railway main line south of Pontarddulais and the West Wales Line to reach Swansea.The station building has been demolished, and between 2008 & the spring of 2010 had only one platform in use as the passing loop here had been temporarily decommissioned (i.e.locked out of use) due to a lack of spare parts for the (obsolete) point machines.
