Maliphant sidings were railway sidings north of Swansea railway station in Wales, UK. In 2012 the sidings were identified as the future site of a maintenance depot for trains of the Intercity Express Programme. ==History== Swansea (High Street) railway station was built in 1850 for the South Wales Railway, which was absorbed into the Great Western Railway in 1863. Sidings were constructed north of the station on the east side of the main line railway out of High Street station, opposite a goods station on the west side; ''Maliphant Street'' passed beneath the main line of the railway north of the goods station.〔 The original facilities included a workshop, turntable, and carriage shed.〔Ordnance Survey, 1879, 1:500〕 By the 20th century the turntable and workshops had been removed and the site had been converted into extensive linear sidings, the sidings remained in that form for the next 100 years, with some changes to layout.〔Ordnance survey, 1:2500; 1899, 1919, 1951-7. 1:10560/1:1:10000; 1921, 1938, 1964, 1972-1995〕
