Cardiff Central Station
I am going to Cardiff next Monday.
Which is the best platform to be on for photos? |
I'll be there this Friday, so, if I remember, I'll have a look and report back ...

Depends what you want to see,
If its the HSTs,Heavy Freight etc, you are probably better on Plt 1-4 If its the buses (ie sprinters) you want, platform 6 and 7 for the Valley lines. Used to work out of Rhymney at the top of the Cardiff Valleys but that was back in the mid 90s so things may have altered a wee bit. Hope it helps. Les |
Thanks for that.

Either way, you're best off on the middle island platform, then you're not far from any of the constant action. Naturally, all depends on the sun, and unfortunately there's nowhere near the amount of freight as could once be found here (Newport's much better for freight workings). Bear in mind that a lot of tall, ugly & imposing buildings have sprung up on the south side of the east end of Cardiff Central. Still, you pays yer money, and you takes yer chances. Have a good day!

Cheers Dave.
