Hakin Docks railway station

Hakin Dock Railway station was a short-lived station, which was constructed to service an anticipated transatlantic trade between Milford Haven, Pembrokeshire and New York City. Work was completed in 1889, and it saw service as the alighting point for passengers embarking to North America, most notably the Gaspesia. It also welcomed passengers disembarking from New York, the inaugural voyage being the City of Rome in 1889. Its proximity to Milford Haven railway station, and the fact that transatlantic trade did not develop at the port, meant that the station was quickly dismantled and absorbed into the Milford Haven Docks complex.
