  • Trains from Heath / llanhishen

    What’s happened to the normal service ? Used to be a direct train that went straight to Nubian park. Faced with 2 changes and a 55 min trip.

    Bus it is today.

    Grangetown yes

      Always got on at Heath lower and straight through to ninian park then. Not sure if that was the llanhishen train but always got it at Heath lower.

              I think the service has stopped on a Saturday.
              Shame really didn’t pay most of the time :-)

                Trains from Heath Low Level (that start at Coryton) are now too and from Cardiff Bay for some reason.

                High High Level (Llanishen, Caerphilly etc) tend to go to Grangetown which works. And the Grange pub is a decent option.

                  Sounds like this needs clarification. I've thought about using this service, but a mate told me that the Saturday trains are always packed on match day, and sometimes you can't get on the train. Is this true?

                    Not at all mate. I get on at Heath Low level, never been unable to get a seat, 20 minutes and I'm walking down to the ground. Your only decision is for the way back. Either get the train just after 5 (means leaving slightly early at times) or wait til the one just after 6. There's always the option to go to Grangetown but I'd imagine that's busier.
                    I've not once not been able to get on, I've only started taking the train this season though and the crowds haven't exactly been bumper 😂

                      Thanks for all the posts.

                      Looks like direct to Grnagetown from Heath high level is the best option.

                      Failing that , it’s change at central and wait 20 mins for the one down to ninian park.

                      The bus is a total lottery after the game. Not too bad going down , but nightmare getting back.

                        Heath Low Level is direct with no change. I don't understand why you're obsessed with Heath High Level which is a 2 minute walk away. 😂 Am I missing something?

                        AMENDMENT - I just checked my train app and it seems changes have been made to that service 🤷🤷

                          Yeah I’ve been on the Heath low level to ninian train all season , probably same train as you. I was surprised to see it wasn’t running as normal yesterday.

                          Not obsessed by any means just want to be able to get to the stadium. Seems the best option as I mentioned earlier is HHL to grangetown.
