Platform 8

My mistake, it was changed to Cardiff Central in 1973. Doesn't seem that long ago.

Whilst I am old enough I just cannot remember it being called General.

Then again this trend of calling it Central seems to have bypassed me as I have always just called it Cardiff and that seems to have worked out ok, so far.

I can remember platform 5!
I used to live in Tresillian Terrace, the backs of our houses backed onto the railway lines just beyond the railway bridge over Penarth Road

There were several more platforms when the station was known as Cardiff General. I have been away from Cardiff for many years but still thought it was known as Cardiff General. Cardiff Central is a much better name.
