limiting the number of people since its likely the union st and gordon st entrances will be closed a while to allow for demolition

Lanark could run to Motherwell to connect with low level service. I think we would see a limited through service for Avanti plus via Paisley routes to start.

/ the one on argyle st under the bridge is better, chips with extra diesel fume seasoning!

Not an expert but when my home was at risk of burning down, the fire services main goal was to prevent the fire spreading to adjoining homes. They basically said if my home catches fire, theres nothing they can really do. So if my experience is any indication, the fire service trains to...

OLE is also a spark risk, which is less than ideal around an already raging fire. Also if the toilets are flooded the Platform 1 OLE isn't that far away if memory serves.

Not a lot you can do with a flag livery, it's either going to look like GBNews or British Airways IMHO
