    Joanne Macguire appointed as ScotRail Chief Operating Officer

    I think experience in the rail industry should be essential for this role. Running colleges and universities for previous experience doesn’t fit for me.

    Scotrail to be run as a direct award to Abellio until March 2022 then Operator of Last Resort to take over

    This has the potential to be a bigger clusterf#*k than abellio running it. The calmac ferry network has been completely under funded for years resulting in vast sums required to build new ships. Will the govt keep investing in scotrail or will investment go the way of the ferry’s.

    Class 321/4 / 320/4

    What about the class 318 which failed to stop at Largs station. Surely a car or two was scrapped after that so cant be intact.

    With another rugby international lined up for a week on Friday at 7.30 with an after 9 finish it will interest to see if any additional planning will be done by scotrail.

    Ideas for Cathcart/Neilston/Newton lines: stock allocation and possible tram conversion?

    Don’t see where the moneys going to come from. Edinburgh system is not big and cost a fortune. I know people will say everything’s there but by the time it’s all adapted and rolling stock is bought the cost will be vast.

    Scotrail Class 385 Discussion

    If they ordered these 10 would it not be worth there while to order one that can run on the battery’s for testing for future possibilities.

    Trivia: shortest possible journey that can be made on each TOC?

    All line rover ticket 7/14 days

    Fort william to Inverness is 68 miles with a regular coach service. I would think you should do all the highland lines in one trip. With the the citylink coach making up your missing link.
