Cardiff Central Railway Station

Originally opened in 1850 as Cardiff Station, it later became Cardiff General in the 1920s and was ultimately renamed Cardiff Central in the 1970s. This station provides links to Manchester, Gloucester, Birmingham, Nottingham, London, Swansea, Bristol, Bath, Taunton, Portsmouth, and Southampton, among other locations. Centrally located, it's aptly named, not far from the main sights of the city and half a mile from Cardiff Castle. Although far from the fanciest of stations, it has many of the essentials. It's also a stone's throw from the Cardiff Bus Interchange, where you'll find several accessible toilets and a Changing Places toilet. Ten hours into what was supposed to be a six-hour journey, Cardiff Central Railway Station was a welcome sight.
