Fishguard Harbour railway station serves the port of Fishguard Harbour, Wales. It is the terminus of one of the branches of the West Wales Line from Swansea.
Passenger services are operated by Arriva Trains Wales. There are only two trains each day, to connect with Stena Line ferries to Rosslare, Ireland. First Great Western operated the day service in the winter and both day and night services in the summer from Paddington until 2003, when the company ran them to Carmarthen only. A stiff 15mph speed restriction into the station is in place due to the lights only level crossing.
Currently 2006 the welsh local government bodies are looking at how better the station and railway line can be served by trains.
