The train journey I am about to do might not be that long but there is a psychological element to it that makes it interminable!

Rhyl to Cardiff for work via...
17:49 Prestatyn
18:03 Flint
18:11 Shotton
18:24 Chester
18:40 Wrexham General
18:47 Ruabon
18:53 Chirk
18:59 Gobowen
19:22 Shrewsbury
19:38 Church Stretton
19:46 Craven Arms
19:54 Ludlow
20:05 Leominster
20:21 Hereford
20:44 Abergavenny
20:54 Pontypool & New Inn
20:59 Cwmbran
21:09 Newport (South Wales)

There is not one inspiring moment in the journey and Arriva Trains Wales do not have great rolling stock. It also has a hit and miss trolley refreshments service.
