and goes through the barriers and the gate shuts. How infuriating is this?
Hasn't actually happened to me, but I've witnessed it a lot with other people at Glasgow Central. Bit of a scummy thing to do, if you ask me.
How can you prove some guy has jumped in front of you if you've used...
Hi! Was on the 9:18am train from Bellgrove to Balloch in Scotland today and the train had to stop at Queen Street Low Level due to somebody taking ill after taking a fit. I must say, the behaviour of the guard was great. He literally went to everybody on that train and said what was happening...
Hi! Can somebody help me with this please?
Need to go from Bellgrove to Summerston (buying a RETURN) tomorrow. Would Bellgrove to Anniesland, then get a train from Anniesland to Summerston be ok for this part of the trip?
On the return, however, I plan to go from Summerston to Glasgow...
Hi! Basically what I'm wanting is for me to step off a train and the first thing I see is some great scenery. Don't want to walk 30 minutes to see it. I want to see it when I get off the train. I need some fresh air. Any ideas of some stations? Thanks a lot!
Hi! Got to Bridgeton Station (25th Feb, around 9:20am) today and noticed on the boards that it said a passenger had become unwell and services would be a disrupted between Rutherglen and Partick. Just wondering why those five stations between there would be disrupted because one person became...
Hi! Didn't know where to put this. Can somebody check this out? I remember reading that somebody worked with the Glasgow stations CCTV.
On a train on the way to Cambuslang around 9:30am. Sitting at Platform 2 at Rutherglen station. I look over to Platform 1 and see this guy with a big camera...
Hi! Just wondering what is Glasgow's quietest train station in terms of how many passengers use it per year? Are these statistics available? Thanks again.
Hi!
Just wondering if this is going to be a regular occurance? Noticed this particular train whilst I was standing at Bellgrove Station. It hit Bellgrove at 10:06 BTW. A bit much for the number of people that use it, IMO. Just wondering. Cheers!
Probably just thinking out loud.
I live in Scotland. Take, for example, Bridgeton Station, cycle park facilities are right next to the place where you buy tickets. Say somebody brings out some bolt-cutters and steals your bike, surely the Scotrail employee should perk up and challenge them as...
Hi again!
Looking to see if this is valid.
Greenfauld to Bellgrove. Get off at Springburn, then get a train from Springburn to Bellgrove.
Is this valid? Just that the route on the National Rail website says that I have to go from Greenfauld to Queen Street, then go to the low level and...
Hi there!
Recently, I've had to go to Stepps from Bellgrove and always bought a RETURN from Bellgrove to Stepps on the train.
On the return portion, I usually get a drive to Barnhill station and get on there. However, everytime I hand over the ticket, I'm getting questioned as to where I got...
Not planning on this, just interested.
Say you are at a remote Glasgow station and you suddenly decide to jump on the tracks at a quiet time, what would happen? How long would it take the CCTV's to spot you and phone the police on you? Would anything happen when you stepped on the lines up...
Am I illegally trespassing on Scotrail property?
Take Barnhill Station in Glasgow. Platform 1.
Just behind the entrance to the platform there is a small, interesting looking forest thing. Once you go inside the forest, you are separated by a fence, then it's the actual rail track. You can...
Just checking the National Rail website about the cyclist storage facilities for this station and can't seem to find where they are? No icons are on the map. Anybody help? Thanks!
Hi! Just spotted that somebody has been hit by a train at Dumbarton East today.
I was at that particular station today. Just wondering if he or she is ok? Thanks!
Hi!
Thinking about going to Johnstone tomorrow. If I'm in the mood for a walk and decide to walk to Paisley, will the return section of the ticket be valid? Thanks.
Glasgow Central to Johnstone (Strathclyde) - RETURN.
Can you good people settle an argument here please?
Do the on-board Scotrail ticket sellers take a commission? Say, for example, ticket inspector leaves at Dalmuir and he has collected £100 from the people on-board, does he take a (legal) cut of that for himself?
Thanks!
Hi. How should I handle this situation?
I want to go to Glasgow Central with my bicycle. Basically..
Q1. How should I handle the squiggly ticket line to buy a ticket? Cycle parking is about a five minute walk from it, but I want to take my bike with me. Would I just go in the line with the...
