It was the first station after [[Gwili Junction]], the point where the line through it divided from the [[Carmarthen Aberystwyth Line\|Carmarthen to Aberystwyth Line]]. Line 29 ⟶ 30: ==The site today== The station site remained undeveloped after closure and the platform survived until 1999 when the trackbed was used for the upgrading of the A40 trunk road as part of Carmarthen's eastern bypass. Nothing now remains as the trackbed has been subsumed beneath the new road scheme. ~~The site is now lost under a spur of Carmarthen's new bypass road.~~ == References == {{cite book\|~~author~~first=R.V.J. \|last=Butt, \|title= The Directory of Railway Stations \|publisher=Patrick Stephens Ltd \|year=1995}} ~~{{ISBN~~\|ISBN=1-85260-508-1}} {{cite book\|~~author~~first=A. \|last=Jowett, \|title= Jowett's Nationalised Railway Atlas \|publisher=Atlantic Publishing \|year=2000}} ~~{{ISBN~~\|ISBN=0-906899-99-0}} * Railscot Carmarthen Branch (Llanelly Railway and Dock Company)[http://www.railbrit.co.uk/Carmarthen_Branch/frame.htm]▼ * Llandeilo to Abergwili Line [https://web.archive.org/web/20080517073053/http://www.llanegwad-carmarthen.co.uk/stationoverview.htm] * [http://www.npemap.org.uk/tiles/map.html#243,221,1 Abergwili station on navigable O.
