The press and media started suggesting Clockwork Orange after the modernisation in the late 1970s but I have never used it myself nor met any Glaswegian who used it. It was always the subway (and always will be!).

Perfect, thanks - we're there from 5th to 19th September so possibly the same time!

Hi, Shortly heading to Peschiera del Garda and will definitely be using the train from there to both Verona and Brescia (and back from both) - can I sanity check some questions? I have the Trenitalia app and have an account set up so I can log in - my intention is to use regional trains for any...
