Query re. Balfron

[ian1944]

Maybe someone knows this - does the basic hourly FSE B10 Glasgow - Balfron run on as the B12 Balfron - Stirling, and vice versa, as suggested by the 2 minute gap in Balfron in each direction? If so, it would make a circular journey which I have in mind not dependent on such a tight connection.

I am not famillar with the area but circular and long routes are split to make timetables simpler. It is the only bus in Balfon at that time?

I read somewhere that it did in fact continue onto Stirling after it gets to Balfron, although I'm not entirely sure what service number it changes into.

Travelled on it last year and it certainly operated as a through service from Stirling to Glasgow. I travelled in the C11 from Stirling instead and then had a break in Balfron.

Thanks, if it did last year it should still do so. It's certainly a more scenic route between Glasgow and Stirling than the alternative through routes via Cumbernauld or Kirkintilloch.

If you can, perhaps better to do it the way I did. Go from Balfron to Glasgow - great views over the city. Did it on an Olympian!
