Rugby fans can from today book their train travel to Cardiff for the Big Day Out double-header between Bristol Bears and Harlequins on Saturday, March 28th.
Great Western Railway are laying on more than 20 extra trains and 9,000 additional seats to cater for the bumper crowd making its way to the Principality Stadium – right next to Cardiff Central Station – for the men and women’s clashes between the Gallagher PREM clubs.
Fans are strongly encouraged to book for the earliest service possible to get into Cardiff ahead of the women’s kick-off at 12.30pm and the men’s kick-off at 3.30pm and allow plenty of time for their journey.
A queuing system will be in place on a first-come-first served service basis for the return trip and supporters should consider delaying their return from Cardiff Central and enjoy the party atmosphere to avoid waiting.
The last train from Cardiff Central to Bristol Parkway is at 9.18pm and from Cardiff Central to Bristol Temple Meads 10.47pm.
The last direct train from Cardiff Central to London Paddington, calling en route at Newport, Bristol Parkway, Swindon, Didcott Parkway is at 8.22pm.
