Ninan Park Railway Station

Sun Feb 14, 2016 6:33 pm

Hello,
I read on the internet that on matchdays trains do not stop at Ninian Park Station. But on the train website I can see trains for Ninan Park, I know it might be a silly question but I never found an article saying this policy was scrapped.
I do not want to go to Grangetown as I am going up to the Ivor Davies before the Brighton match.
Thanks.

It doesn't pick uP after games health safety reasons? Mind you ran when had 50k at games years gone by!

Grangetown is nearest for that.

Cheers.
I wanted to use Grangetown after the game as long as I can get to Ninian before the match it should be fine.

I was told that in 2012 trains did not stop two hours either side of the match.

That was changed a long time ago, normal service to NP on a match day.

It was because of bigger crowds and more people using the train because parking was so bad, that the platform at NP station was packed. But it's not anymore.
