Timetable has been released and is available to download here. The package also contains extra splash screens for the 3 Cardiff simulations. Note that it's in the Aston folder until a Cardiff folder is created. Mod note now in the Cardiff category. Description: A busy Saturday timetable for Cardiff PSB. South Africa plays Wales at 17:30 tonight, with ATW and GWR running extra services to handle the crowds. Timings are taken from RTT, and train formations are as allocated on the day in quesition. Small adjustments have been made to GWR services- in reality, signalling issues at Bath disrupted the GWR service, however this timetable represents the planned service for the day. Platform allocations are as per the schedules- any conflicts are for the signaller to deal with as they see fit. In the event, Wales won 27-13. Service pattern: Arriva Trains Wales The usual Saturday service operates, consisting of: 4 tph Penarth- Bargoed (1tph extends to Rhymney) 2tph Barry Island- Merthyr Tydfil (1tph in reverse direction runs to Bridgend) 2tph Barry Island- Aberdare (1tph runs from Bridgend) 2tph Cardiff Central- Treherbert 2tph Coryton- Radyr 6tph Cardiff Queen Street- Cardiff Bay 1tph Manchester- Carmarthen (extends every other hour to Milford Haven) 1tph Cardiff Central- Ebbw Vale Town 1tph Cheltenham Spa- Maesteg (some trains run to/from Cardiff Central only) 1tp2h Cardiff Central- Swansea stopping service 1tp2h Cardiff Central- Holyhead In addition, shuttles to Newport operate from Cardiff before and after the match.
