    Scottish Citylink 900 stops in Edinburgh

    Hello everyone. I am just wanting to check that the 900 still uses the stops on Shandwick Place, either side of the road, which have been used for decades now? The PDF timetable on the website only lists the main stops, whereas the bus times website does indeed list them all. A friend and I...

    For some reason I seem to like this dark carpet than the horrid, wood effect vinyl seen on some of the railway.

    Buchanan Bus Station, Glasgow

    The changes have been on the Traveline Scotland App for weeks. Or is that not classed as 'dynamic'?

    Recommend public transport planning apps?

    I personally use the Traveline Scotland App for my needs. I am not sure if the few which cover only parts of England are any good?

    Are some people not cut out to drive?

    I am old enough to be the original poster's father,being in my early 50s. I only ever had 2 driving instructors years ago. The first one, was only a few years older than myself, I was late teens, & he was too c*cky for my liking. The second was an acquaintance of the family, & I worked with his...

    ScotRail Club 50. Is it good to have?

    Hello everyone. I already have the Scottish Concessionary Travel Card-Disability version, which I do make much use of, & I do use Citylink for away days. Just to be clear that I do not qualify for the Disability railcard. I am in my early 50s and for a while, I have been dithering whether or not...

    Scottish Citylink

    What a horrid website! At least it is on my Lenovo tablet. I was having a nosey to go up to Fort William from Glasgow early next week on the 1st coach of the day and down about lunchtime & I couldn't get it to display any times. Lol I know the old website was outdated, yet if you were used to...

    The Fife "Flyer": Queen Street <->Fife.

    Hello folks. I am someone who occasionally uses the railway, or buses. I do not drive. Long story but most of my time/skills are required in Fife, & I reside in Kirkintilloch, nearest railway station after the 1960s is, Lenzie. 1N79 looks an ideal service for me to get rather than all the...

    Juliano's World Frenzy/Tech's Trip Reports

    I wanted to thank you also Tech for being you I guess. I am not really someone who "does" the railway much, yet enjoyed reading your trip reports & postings. Another person I miss within the last year is one of your friend's, Dan, from here, BlindTraveller. He was another very interesting...

    Identity Cards

    I said yes to this when we were discussing the issue as a country a few years ago. I like the present format of driving licence cards and would extend that to include an age verification system with it as well. I am thinking for self service check outs and such. Perhaps that would need to piggy...

    Sounds like a ((BRITISH)) thing. All around our British Islands, we cannot organise an inebriation within a brewery.
