Customer Advice
-
What has happened?
-
A train has broken down at Neath blocking one of the two lines through the station. This will affect services between Cardiff Central and Carmarthen (via Swansea).
-
What are we doing about it?
-
We are still able to run trains through Neath using the other available line, however this will reduce the number of trains that can run.
-
What are your options?
-
We are sorry for the disruption to your journey today.
-
As trains are still running you should travel as normal and catch your intended train.
-
If your train is cancelled, you may travel on either of the two services before, or two services after, your original train. If these are peak services or less flexible, you can still travel with your original ticket, at no extra cost.
-
You can use your ticket at no extra cost on Transport for Wales train services between Cardiff Central and Carmarthen, in both directions. Their services are also affected by this incident so please check before you travel.

If you miss a connection as a result of being delayed, you can use your ticket, at no extra cost, on the next available train.
