Departing from and arriving at Trehafod
Before departing from Trehafod
Use Trehafod (TRH) in the departure field and check the platform for your booked direction. Keep all tickets available for inspection, including every part of a split-ticket journey.
The station record lists access from Bridge Street, Trehafod Road. Match the entrance to your departure platform before setting out; the nearest entrance is not necessarily the most accessible one.
Trehafod is recorded as unstaffed. Arrange any boarding assistance ahead of travel and choose an offered ticket-delivery method you can use before boarding; do not rely on finding a staffed ticket desk.
When arriving at Trehafod
Select Trehafod (TRH) as the arrival station and plan the onward journey from that station, rather than from the centre of the wider area. Check your return departure separately, particularly when the return train uses a different platform.
The recorded Category C access at Trehafod means step-free access is unavailable. If you need to avoid steps, ask the operator about a suitable alternative station and the complete onward journey before booking.
Compare fares and split tickets for Trehafod
For travel between Trehafod and Cardiff Central, compare the complete price for the same trains, passengers and class. Check a through ticket against any split-ticket combination offered; a cheaper total is not guaranteed. If your plans may change, compare the flexibility of the tickets as well as the price.
What should I check when splitting this journey?
The train normally needs to call where one ticket ends and the next starts, even if you stay aboard. Check every ticket’s permitted trains, Railcard conditions and reservations. Some season and area tickets have specific exceptions.
Read the split-ticket guidance for your journey, or check refunds and amendments before booking.
