Do you recognise any of the men from these images?
Police want to speak to them about a large scale fight which broke out at Pontypridd train in front of terrified families and children during Euro 2016.
Train staff were also threatened as they tried to stop the fight which happened after 3,000 people left a nearby fanzone in Ynysangharad Park.
It happened on Wednesday, July 6, the day Wales played Portugal in the semi-final of the tournament.
British Transport Police said that after the event a large number of fans arrived at Pontypridd railway station and a number of them started fighting.
As a result of this, there was widespread disorder, a number of train services were disrupted and staff members were threatened.
Desired dozen! Violence erupted at #Pontypridd after a#EURO2016 match. We want info on these blokes in connection.
Investigating officer Det Con Dilwyn Lewis said: “The Euros were a fantastic time to be a Welsh football fan and thousands of people across the country enjoyed watching the games.
“Sadly on this occasion, a number of people after the game felt the need to start becoming violent – there were a number of random fights breaking out in the station, which caused disruption to other passengers, including families and children.
“Not only that, but staff members were threatened when they tried to intervene and this will not be tolerated.
“We would like to speak to the men in these images as we think they have valuable information about what happened. If you recognise any of them, please get in touch.”
Anyone with information is asked to contact Det Con Lewis at British Transport Police on 0800 40 50 40 or text 61016 – quoting 293 of 1 August.
