    Dread to think what the UK government plans for the homeless in our towns and cities.

    You should wash hands anyway. Truth is the government don't really have any answers. We are on our own.

    Poll: Potential General Election: who are you voting for?

    Certainly something will need to give in the next decade regarding modernisation or thr Green gig will make the entire NIR system redundant.

    Poll: Potential General Election: who are you voting for?

    Hardly surprising considering it's a public transport forum and most of the workers will be trade unionists.

    Poll: Potential General Election: who are you voting for?

    Leaving aside the politics, it's heartbreak hotel for the railways in Northern Ireland. There should be links all the way to Galway, Sligo, Donegal and most towns in between from Belfast. It's just so sad.

    Ways to improve the First Glasgow Network

    Hopefully between the Low Emission Zone and bus gates the message will finally kick in with the car lovers. Slightly easier now with partial bus lanes but i can remember it taking an hour to go from Charing Cross to Govanhill because of gridlock by the selfish one car one person brigade. And...

    Ways to improve the First Glasgow Network

    Then there's the bizarre set up in places like Partick or the West End in general where's it's nigh on impossible to park a car yet the area has buses and trains/subway coming out it's ears. Do the car owners in the West End all work outside the city centre that makes a car essential?

    Ways to improve the First Glasgow Network

    It's downhill all the way since the rightwingers (do they use buses?) privatised public transport. You can now live within a couple of miles of city centre and forget it with buses after 6pm.

    Poll: Potential General Election: who are you voting for?

    Take it there's not too many on here from Northern Ireland. Then again i don't blame them. NIR other than upgrades to the infrastructure there's not much than a lot of talk. There's still no sign after about six decades of additions to the network and electrification might come quicker in a...

    Poll: Potential General Election: who are you voting for?

    A good guess would also be most members on here support public transport and would like to see more money invested in the railways. That's more likely to happen with a non Tory government.

    Drivers: Do you like people waving from platforms?

    Sound a right bunch of grumps. What other job do folks wave at you? Other than maybe the Fire Service.

    Oldest railway stations

    Correct although i believe Eglinton St Station predates that again with a straight East to West track on the Glasgow/Paisley line, 1830s? Then there's Glebe St at Townhead, completely gone but part of the orginal line in use to Cumbernauld.

    Drivers: Do you like people waving from platforms?

    Mention railways and it's surprising how often people mention "waving". I'm sure it's a very British/Railway Children gig.
