    Is there anywhere on National Rail that creates a kind of mini-metro service?

    The whole of Glasgow’s North Clyde - trains every 2 and a half - 3 minutes through Partick and Hyndland taking you as far west as Helensburgh, as far south as Larkhall, or as far east as Edinburgh. Frequency does dip at night and on Sundays, but trains are still fairly frequent at those times.

    Glasgow’s North Clyde Line - constant delays

    It does - extended dwells in most schedules at Bathgate, Airdrie, Coatbridge Sunnyside, High St, Charing Cross, Partick, Hyndland, Dalmuir and Dumbarton Central….most of these dwells are longer than 30 seconds (although by the looks of it not always).

    McGill's Buses - Renfrewshire & Inverclyde

    I see a lot of timetable changes are in for the end of August in McGills land. Does anyone know what they entail? Is it just trimming service frequencies back? Seen the 547 is due to be withdrawn.

    Stagecoach West Scotland

    Correct, basically a stagecoach version of the X5. Think it also went via moodiesburn to allow the X25 to go fast via the M80.

    Lanark Argyle Line Timetable

    Answer may be to do with this: https://www.scotrail.co.uk/revised-timetable ‘The suspension of driver training during lockdown, due to physical distancing rules making it impossible for two people to sit in the driver’s cab at the same time, means it’s not yet possible for a full service to...

    ScotRail 156 at Newcastle?

    Yes, and in the north east of England - partly to these reciprocal arrangements probably.

    ScotRail 156 at Newcastle?

    The crew don’t work the route all day, just some trains between Dumfries and Carlisle, There are also some northern units that do the same. There are various existing threads on the subject - but these arrangements have existed since British Rail days I believe.

    ScotRail 156 at Newcastle?

    A 156 stables overnight at Newcastle off of the 1613 from Glasgow to Newcastle. This forms the first Newcastle - Glasgow in the morning.
