However once phase 2 opens I could...

    Future demand for services bypassing Glasgow

    Would the best solution )if better services avoiding Glasgow are needed) be to have a service at least hourly from Motherwell to Stirling or further and stop more or all WCML services at Motherwell?

    Trivia: Stations that have the most train destinations? (Inc Sunday, late night, peak hours)

    My vision for (kind of Merseyside centric) new services/stations across the UK.
