I was wondering what are the line speeds between Aberdeen-Glasgow/Edinburgh as have searched the net but not been able to find the information.
Thanks in advance for your help.
I agree that there should be help points on every platform as it would help when say the ticket office is closed during what would normally be it's opening hours(staff sickness ect) which can be unavoidable sometimes.
I'm looking forward to seeing what happens with the franchise as currently the bulk of trains I see up here are the 170's with a few 125's throughout the day
Not a Virgin operated station but Glasgow Central which the Glasgow-London service starts from has ticket barriers though not on to the platforms usually used for these trains, platforms 1 & 2 which I assume would be easy to add barriers to if required

Thank you once again.
true, one solution though maybe costly is if they got another of the electrification trains up here similarly to how their using one on the Great Westren
I just wish NR wouldn't leave the Aberdeen-Dundee until practically last as if I'm right but not sure if I am, we're always the last to get things like electrification done.
I long for the day when the only HST's up here will be the XC Voyager and Super Voyagers.
I was wondering what people thought of how long it'll be before Network Rail gets to electrifying this section of line especially the Montrose-Dundee section?
I would say that I wish they would do it sooner as it is a major line though one other problem I see is the single line track from the...
Well I've found another station missing a platform, Stirling starts with Platform 2 and not a sign anywhere of Platform 1, is there any other stations apart from here and Temple Meads that skip platform numbers?
I'm sorry, I should've said how I have learning disabilities/difficulties and maybe I should've said the station I was travelling from was Cardiff Central but I'm sure we can get this misunderstanding sorted.
The Montrose-Crewe example was an example of how I prepare for my journys as...
