The slope of the canopy supports contrasts with the vertical lamppost and shelter, one of several shelters on this platform. Platform 4 is generally used for trains to the north, south and the West Country. Most departures for London Paddington use platform 3, with trains west to Cardiff and beyond generally using platform 2. There is some flexibility (and late platform changes) when a train is delayed. Platform 1 is used for a few trains to Cardiff.
