Landore High Level railway station
# Landore High Level railway station

Landore High Level railway station was opened on 19 June 1850 by the South Wales Railway, which later became part of the Great Western Railway. The station was located on the north side of Swansea in the residential area of Landore. The engineer of this broad gauge line was Brunel. The line was later extended westwards to Carmarthen. After closure of Landore Low Level in 1954 the station became known as Landore.

To the west of the station site is Landore Junction (Swansea Loop East Junction), which allows trains to run south into the main Swansea terminus. The line remains in use as the West Wales Line, between Neath and Swansea.

## History

The station suffered a fire in 1874, which resulted in a rebuild in the following year.

## Future

As of 2019 the station is being considered for reopening.
