We board 2A22, the 1055 Trenau Arriva Cymru service to Cardiff Central arriving there at 1110 this Thursday morning.
What ECS move?
That would have been 5F91, the 0005 Arriva Trains Wales service to Cardiff Canton Sidings, which even if it were a Passenger service we wouldn't have been able to travel on as it doesn't allow the five minutes required. ;)

Would this have been allowed anyway - 5 minutes connecting time and all that. The public timetable only gives a 2 minute turnaround and I don't think the WTT should count
