All trains serving the station are operated by Transport for Wales.
Like many of its neighbours, the station has only one active platform, no surviving permanent buildings and is located adjacent to an open level crossing. All northbound services are timetabled to stop here, however southbound services only call if requested to do so for unknown reasons. The station also has the usual collection of amenities common to others on this part of the line (waiting shelter, CIS display, timetable poster board and customer help point) as well as a payphone. Level access is available between the main entrance and platform.[2]
From Monday to Saturday, there are five trains a day to Shrewsbury northbound (plus a 22:30 to Llandovery), seven southbound to Swansea. On Saturdays, the first train in each direction does not run. Also, the last train of the day (22:48) runs southbound to Carmarthen. On Sundays, there are two trains northbound to Shrewsbury and two trains southbound to Swansea (the last one continuing to Cardiff Central).
