Travelling from Glasgow on an EC ticket

[BrianTheLion]

Im travelling from Glasgow to Kings Cross on the 27th December.

I have an EC & Connections ticket.

I will be travelling into Glasgow Central on a local train. Is there anything stopping me taking a train from Central via Shotts instead of walking across the city to Queen Street with my luggage?

I vaguely remember the last time I did something similar I got a very funny look from the onboard staff.

I believe that ScotRail permit the use of any of their four Glasgow - Edinburgh routes on such a ticket. You will probably get funny looks from staff because Shotts and Carstairs take longer than the other two by a fair margin, especially if you were on a Shotts stopper, but it is still nonetheless valid iirc.

We have plenty of ScotRail staff here so I am sure one of them will confirm my claims (hopefully).

There is a frequent free bus between the two stations for rail ticket holders so you wouldn't actually need to walk to Queen Street.
