More seats to be provided by rail operator ahead of Six Nations rugby match

The rail operating company, which operates the South Wales to London rail franchise, will run two eight-car Electrostars between Cardiff and Newport.

The electric train service will run every 30 minutes as part of plans to disperse crowds after the Principality Stadium fixture on Saturday 12 February.
