I read the "where appropriate" as to mean "if present".

I believe the poster typed "now" instead of "not", which has "now" been corrected. :p Loganair have *not* cancelled these routes.

Update on the Aberdeen lounge. ScotRail staff on site said any first class ticket permits access. Indeed there are LNER and Caledonian Sleeper logos inside the lounge (no XC though!). Access is via intercom. If no answer, go downstairs to ticket office directly below lounge, because they are...

I saw that. But as yet, no additional strike dates have been announced.

Where have you seen this announced?

Yes it is: https://www.scotrail.co.uk/tickets/combined-tickets-travel-passes/scottish-grand-tour And yes, a number of the Scottish rover tickets were removed from sale during Covid.

The original article seems to be based on a false premise 1. Who is measuring the overall travel demand between the two cities? The market is not comprises solely of rail + air = 100%. 2. Who is measuring how many people travel by road, either by car or by coach?

ScotRail lounge. Not sure what kind of tickets get you in, for reasons stated above. In the old lounge, access was for interavailable first class tickets and sleeper passengers. Probably ScotRail first class advance will also be allowed in (I don't think such tickets existed before Inter7City...

The new lounge at Aberdeen is now open. Located directly above the new ticket office on the concourse. Unstaffed - access is via intercom and showing ticket to a camera. Or in my case: nobody answered the intercom so I knocked on the door and asked one of the occupants to let me in. Tea /...

I can recommend a microfibre towel like this, which is both small / packable and doesn't get wet like a traditional towel. https://highlander-outdoor.com/uk_shop/fibre-soft-towel-large.html

Ah yes - CREATE (Campaign for Rail Electrification from Aberdeen to Edinburgh). Nicol Stephen (later Scottish Lib Dems leader) was the figurehead for a while.

That NRE page is not comprehensive though. e.g. it doesn't (at the time of writing) mention the ScotRail RMT members' strike on Saturday 29 October, which *is* mentioned on the ScotRail site: https://www.scotrail.co.uk/plan-your-journey/passenger-disruption/industrial-action

ScotRail RMT members have a 24 hour strike on Saturday 29 October. https://www.rmt.org.uk/news/members-updates/rates-of-pay-and-conditions-of-service-2022--scotr141022/?preview=true 2p for checking each electronic ticket... incredible this kind of negotiation is ongoing in 2022. :lol...

If we can have the OP's journey details, we can look on RTT to see which unit did the working.

The ScotRail class 170s do have first class (one compartment at each end, with 9 seats in each). Unless the service was - unusually - operated by a suburban class 170 without first class (are there any of them left?)

You would get to spend 45 minutes at Aberdeen station before you caught the same train back to Edinburgh! There's only one Edinburgh to Aberdeen CrossCountry service a day (there's two in the other direction, but the first is before the off peak ticket validity).

Except if you're CrossCountry. :lol: Aberdeen to Edinburgh Off Peak Return £58.10 Any Permitted (valid after 0915) £58.80 CrossCountry Only (valid from 0930)

It's not currently suiting passengers who travel to/from stations north of Edinburgh. But it's the railway, so who cares, as long as it suits the railway operations people, eh? Passengers are clearly not a "concerned party".

Northbound at Inverkeithing, the front door of coach L is on the platform by around 15m, but both doors of coach L are kept locked. Does the SDO only work on a full coach basis?
