Broken-down train may delay Pontypridd to Radyr services by 40 minutes

A broken-down train between Pontypridd and Radyr may delay services by up to 40 minutes, Transport for Wales said at 17:00 on Wednesday. Trains may also be cancelled in both directions.
TfW says the disruption began at 15:56 and is expected to last until the end of the day. Its maintenance team is in contact with the train crew while work continues to rectify the problem. The operator has not identified the train or given a precise repair time, so passengers should check the relevant service before travelling.
Alternative travel and refunds
Affected tickets can be used on Stagecoach services at no extra cost. TfW says passengers who arrive more than 15 minutes late may claim Delay Repay. Passengers who decide not to travel because of the disruption can seek a fee-free refund for an unused ticket from the retailer that sold it.
