Up until 1947, three daily 'vacuum fish' express services transported fish from the Haven to various destinations in the UK, including London Paddington, Yeovil and the north of England. Fish vans were often attached to passenger trains. Goods traffic remained dominant over passenger traffic until the commercial decline of the docks in the late twentieth century. Into the twentieth century, direct services to London Paddington were in operation, and a sleeper service remained in place until the 1960s. The sidings were reduced substantially in 1968, although goods traffic continued until the 1980s. InterCity 125 services from London Paddington to Milford ran until the early 1990s, terminating in 1994. Sealink operated a service to Dún Laoghaire briefly between 1978-79 from Milford. A scheme to expand the freight capability at Milford Haven is under development, based on a new import facility for biomass and wood pellets for the energy market in England and Wales. In September 2019, MP for Preseli Pembrokeshire Stephen Crabb called on politicians and Network Rail to upgrade Milford station, citing a lack of suitable facilities.
