Ferryside railway station serves the seaside village of Ferryside, Carmarthenshire, Wales. The station is unmanned and is a request stop, this means that if you are on the train you must advise the train manager that you wish to alight there. Likewise if you wish to board the train you must indicate your intention to the driver as the train approaches. There is a level crossing near the station as well as a manually operated signal box, which in 2016 was listed as being due for computerisation.
