• A queuing system will be in place at Cardiff Station following the game
• 14 extra trains are running – but plan your journey in advance at GWR.com.
With Wales hosting England, former England and Wales Rugby Internationals David Flatman and Tom Shanklin visited the BT Sport Cardiff Arms Park as part of their series of videos for Great Western Railway.

For fans travelling early to the match, GWR has pulled to together a list of things to do and places to eat and drink pre-game: GWR.com/6nations/cardiff.
GWR Development Manager Wales Mark Youngman said:
“While we have provided 7,000 extra seats to meet demand, a post-match queueing system will be in place to help passengers board their train home safely.”
Some Cardiff Central station car parks will be closed prior to and during the games and Cardiff Queen Street will close just before the end of the match.
Seat reservations will be honoured where possible; if for any reason we are unable to do so, or if you have a reservation and are not able to get to a seat please contact our customer services team for compensation.
