Dumbarton - Glasgow

[gabrielhj07]

Morning everyone,

I have an Anytime Day Single from Dumbarton Central to Glasgow Central, routed Any Permitted.

Is it permitted to instead use a direct train to Glasgow Queen Street, and walk to Central from there?

As far as I can see there are no fares from Dumbarton Central to (specifically) Glasgow Central: they are all issued to GLASGOW CEN/QST and, as such, can be used to travel to either station.

Why do you think your ticket is only to Glasgow Central?

Yes this is permitted, you can travel:

To Central changing at Hyndland or Partick
To Queen St direct
To Queen St changing at Anniesland

If the times worked, I would probably get one of the West Highland Line 156 services in, much quicker and a chance to run fast through all the suburban stations.

So you’re coming from further north?

In that case, just stay on the train!

That itinerary doesn't alter the validity of the ticket on other trains, or on the same train from Fort William through to Queen Street.
