Transport for Wales Rail

Large events at the Principality Stadium mean tens of thousands of more customers will be travelling on Transport for Wales Rail services.  All services to and from Cardiff on these days will be extremely busy and, often, standing room only.  Socially distancing will not be possible on services.

Wearing a face covering will remain the law in Wales and customers must take personal responsibility to wear a covering when travelling of services and within enclosed stations, unless exempt.

Please note:
