Note
Milford Haven station was opened as the western terminus of the South Wales Railway on 15 April 1856. The station was renamed Neyland in February 1859, but again renamed as New Milford in November of the same year. It was shown as New Milford (Milford Haven) in some timetables. The South Wales Railway was amalgamated with the Great Western Railway in 1863. Following the official opening of Fishguard harbour station and the transfer of the Waterford and Cork ferry services from New Milford to Fishguard on 30 August 1906, New Milford station was renamed Neyland on 1 September 1906. The station closed to goods traffic on 2 December 1963, and to passenger traffic on 15 June 1964.
