Why on earth would they get the train to the opposite end of the town, rather than the cheaper and more frequent buses that go directly to the university?

Just like you are advised to take advice.

And this thread is about the possibility of extending that elsewhere. Obviously it isn't currently accepted. So they can choose to use the existing railway photocard. It wouldn't come under the GDPR any more than a bouncer checking ID at the door of a pub. In any case, even if it did come...

No, they'd just use a separate railway p

Not entirely sure it's accurate, but ScotRail's Journey Check service just emailed me the following:

It's not just the fact the train is no longer non stop - that doesn't bother me all that much, but the fact that there are now fewer trains to choose from AND the return train to Bridge of Allan is now slower than the current stoppers! I can now arrive in Edinburgh at 08:05 or 08:41 instead of...

Delighted to discover the best option from Edinburgh to Bridge of Allan in the evening peak now leaves 9 minutes earlier and arrives 14 minutes later, thanks to a 13 minute wait in Stirling! http://www.realtimetrains.co.uk/train/G89354/2018/12/11/advanced Shambles of a timetable...

I accidentally found this study while looking for something else, and found it quite interesting reading. Study P.S. The consultation is still open for comments, if you're quick...

Yes, sounds wise. I have also given up and taken the week off, so as long as they hand the line back on time on the Monday, it should cause me any (more) hassle either...

Scotrail now handing out leaflets about the closure at Bridge of Allan (and presumably elsewhere). Leaflet says to check www.scotrail.co.uk/electrification or the app for details of bus timings. I'm still seeing normal train timings... Bloody hopeless. Think I'll just take the week off rather...

As a commuter between Bridge of Allan and Edinburgh, I was interested (and surprised) to come across this thread. The web page seems to imply that all trains will be cancelled between Dunblane and Larbert (to Edinburgh, at least). However, trying to check the rail-replacement bus times leaves...

The only sign of anyone abusive here is you.

I'm not sure what your point is. Nothing can ever be sold in case a future owner fails to maintain it?

Best tell ScotRail: https://www.scotrail.co.uk/tickets/combined-tickets-travel-passes/spirit-of-scotland

They don't tell them that, because that isn't true.

Sounds like raising the bridge would have been the cheaper option!

Kippenross tunnel (as well as the nearby footbridge) were done long ago.

Well, what if someone doesn't have a card? It isn't a very useful replacement though. Instead of just having cash the user now needs to have a card as well, which is the problem the Promise to Pay was supposed to solve! And, as you go on to say, such a system would be much more useful if you...

So, uhm. If someone doesn't have a (credit/debit) card to pay with, they just need to bring a (smart) card with them so they can pay with cash?

OK, that clears up the "ordered step" part. I'm still not really sure what set of "software sequences" this argument applies to, or what it means for something to "be obvious via a fault signature" (other than by reporting an error message, which is mentioned separately and is presumably...
