The New Platform 8 At Cardiff Central Station

It’s been a long time, since I’ve been to Cardiff station and it now has a new platform on the South sisw, which is numbers 8.

It now looks like Cardiff Central has three platforms 6, 7 and 8 for most of the local services.

This Google Map shows the new South entrance.

Note.

1. The actual entrance is the five-sided building at the bottom of the map.
2. Platform 8 is in front of this building.
3. Platforms 6 and 7 are either side of the island platform..
4. The three platforms are connected by a subway.

It doesn’t appear that the platforms are electrified at this time.
