How to book cheap train tickets from Cardiff Queen Street to Penarth

Travelling in off-peak train times

If your schedule allows for flexibility, choosing off-peak times for your trip from Cardiff Queen Street to Penarth can result in significant cost savings.

Using the Railcard for 1/3 off

Split Tickets to save an average extra 30%
