Hi,
I recently made a rail journey from Hairmyres to Broughty Ferry.
Booking sites were giving me a price of £25.80 for a single with Disabled rail card.
This seemed dear as Broughty Ferry or Dundee to Glasgow Stations is only £15.80 and Glasgow Stations to Hairmyres is only £2.60.
I tried the train splitting sites and could only get the £25.80 fare displayed so in the end I did some “DIY splitting”.
HMY - GLC/GLQ £2.60
GLC/GLQ - BYF £15.80
(Saving of £7.40).
Both tickets included bus transfer from Glasgow Central to Glasgow Queen Street.
I was surprised none of the ticket splitting sites didn’t pick this up though.
