    Seems I have stirred a hornets nest. This is organisational criticism, I know the staff do their best. However I have great difficulty understanding how a train that is supposed to arrive in 5 mins can suddenly be cancelled. My guess is that it never left Kilmarnock, therefore we should have...

    Scotfail

    A wee bit of snow and some cold weather and everything grinds to a halt. However the crowning glory is the "communications" process. Was waiting for the 11:12 to Kilmarnock, naturally it was late. We were told that carriages for this service would arrive in 5 mins ( train was already 10 mins...

    10 journey tickets etc

    As my title suggests I regularly travel along the Ayr-Glasgow line, maybe 5-6 times per week. However I generally do not return same day. I find it disappointing that I cannot purchase a 10 journey ticket to save me money. I feel we are not "encouraged" enough to use trains as it is, but there...
