Judging by the attendance at their conference this weekend, he must be one of the few that are left. Still, it was a truly inspired decision to put The Morning Star on every delegates seat as it lets us see how empty the place is!

Often happens as well at the platforms Tweedbank trains terminate at - I assume the conductor advises ahead that he/she hasn't been able to collect all fares.

Melrose Would Newtongrange and Eskbank count as closed when they're sort of relocated?

You can use the Scotrail Smartcard on Cross Country: What services can I use my ScotRail Smartcard on? You can use your ScotRail Smartcard on ScotRail and Cross Country trains, as well as Smart Season Tickets on LNER services. Your card can also be used on the SPT Subway and participating...

S4C's budget is over 3 times larger - I await your explanation! And, of course, both S4C and BBC Scotland would contend that they are national broadcasters. I repeat, an annual budget of £30 million for a 7 day a week broadcaster is embarrassingly low. Further, significantly less money raised in...

Did McGills (the original) not have artics at one point - I assume early 80s?

£32m is less than 10% of the budget of Channel 5. Channel 5 is hardly cutting edge tv so, yes, I call an annual budget for a new TV channel of £32 million terrifyingly low - it is being set up to fail. Re bias, do a search for Billy Bigot and Question Time and consider how the recent QT from...

No, it won't do very well because it has a terrifyingly low budget and will continue to report Scottish news and politics in a biased way. Please note, however, that Scotland is not a region, it is a nation.

Surely you know what personal data they have? For me, they will have my name, address, credit card and expiry date (not the 3 numbers on back), log in username and password, a record of tickets I have bought both ticket and smartcard, my smartcard number and email address. My account will have...

Curious that there doesn't appear to be any studded or yellow bumped area - assuming they're going to install then why not do it at the same time as tarmacking?

Saved the above to my phone in case of any hassle - did a via Central and Motherwell to get the return journey to show.

Brilliant - many thanks. :p

Hi, On Friday, my wife and I are travelling from Tweedbank to Charing Cross (Glasgow) so propose to buy return tickets for this and our homeward leg on the Saturday. Question is, we are meeting people at Central Station for afternoon food on the Saturday - can I assume my return from Charing...

Initially, I thought that as well but it looks as if the numbers on both sides of the cab are higher than the original which suggests the screen has perhaps been fitted.

Why would the route have gone anywhere near the rugby pitch? That's a completely new suggestion to me and involves more than just going over a rugby pitch - it's a completely different part of town to the original route. Logic suggests moving the bypass slightly over towards the hospital side...

Design.

Yep, stop this thread just now. Cumbernauld Town Centre can simply not be beaten.

Does an advance ticket not prohibit the use of the 1st class lounge?

To be fair to Scotrail, there seems to be some light at the end of the tunnel - they did suggest that this week would see a huge improvement. On journeycheck at 1300 today there are no cancellations showing (touch wood). A number of formation amendments but I don't recall any previous...

I appreciate that training is required but, honestly, how many hours training does a guard/conductor require to switch from 158/170 to HST? What is causing the complication? This seems to be dragging on and on.
