About the memorial: A Trio of Plaques located in the main entrance to Cardiff Central Station. The original war memorial at Cardiff Central was lost when the station was refurbished in the late 20th century. Network Rail cast the new plaques and placed them on display at the eastern end of the booking hall. At the time of the First World War, several local railway companies served Cardiff as well as the Great Western Railway and London & North Western Railway. The crests of four local companies adorn the central plaque of the memorial. The local companies were amalgamated into the GWR by the Second World War.
