Premier League along with England and Wales rugby fan chaos with train strikes leaving 74,000 stranded in Cardiff

Summarized by: Live Sports Direct
 

There will be no trains leaving Cardiff after full-time due to national strikes. Great Western Rail and Cross Country Trains are taking part in the walkout. Transport for Wales is not.

There will be no trains leaving Cardiff before the rugby match between Wales and New Zealand. There will also be none after the game between Cardiff and Wigan. About 20% of train services will not be running across the UK due to the ongoing dispute over workers' pay. This will affect Premier League, EFL, FA Cup, rugby and horse racing fans. There is also a bumper day of racing with 20 races and TEN hours of live coverage on ITV. The games taking place this weekend include the Rugby League World Cup quarter-final between England and Papa New Guinea and the Gallagher Premiership Rugby between Newcastle and Bath.
