    Possible train strike on day of Swansea game

    Looks like there is due to be a train strike on Saturday 1 April - the day of the game v the Jacks.

    If that's the case, if the club had any sense they'd be laying on free buses for this.

    The words 'Cardiff City and sense' are rarely found in the same sentence together.

    Doesn't affect trains in Wales does it? It hasn't previously I don't think. Only trains entering and leaving Wales via England.

    All reports appear to say it is a National Rail Strike by the RMT and it has affected Wales in previous ones, though Transport for Wales are listed as one of the companies not affected this time.

    I have had to drive to the game from other side of Newport when there have been previous ones and traffic has been awful - or I have not bothered going.

    Unfortunately, truer words have never been spoken.

    There's engineering work taking place on the valley lines on that day.

    Great Western run many if the trains between Swansea and Cardiff, the strike will affect them

    I think what Kev was getting at is some trains enter from England. Trains that go between Cardiff and Swansea usually come from London etc...
