Not a lot to say, it's a train station but very handy to get into Glasgow City Centre, it only…read moretakes ten mins and that equates to four stops ( very handy) and that's me in Central Station. The good thing about this train station and almost all of the stations I frequent is they are very well lit at all times during the year, with plenty of CCTV to give you a feeling of safety and in the winter months they are always very well gritted I never wait more than ten mins for a train either into Glasgow or in the opposite direction to Coatbridge not a lot more to say except the view over to East Kilbride Bd beyond is nice too

Ohhhh Patterton. What a sad train station. It's barely even a station, and more of an lonely,…read moredesolate area with two platforms, a bridge and one small shelter for those "rare" Scottish days of bad weather. This is my local station though, and needs must. I like that trains seem to arrive on time and if the driver sees you running for the train, they'll (mostly) wait for you. I've had some great times standing at this platform, most notably in the snow in negative temperatures and then tramping back home again as the train was a no-show. There's now an extra car park in addition to the one at the station, it's over the road and has a stupidly located exit so you have to go back on yourself to get out and over to the station. Nothing like a mad dash to run for the train first thing in the morning. II'd love it if they upgraded Patterton to make it more like its glamorous neighbour, Whitecraigs. Now this is a fancy station - they even have flower planter boxes and an indoor waiting area. Alas, I don't think that's going to happen any time soon.

Balloch may not be the most desirable of places to go, but there is plenty to do in this area…read more The train station has a small platform, with a ticket office, waiting room. The area has an out door shelter area and bike storage area. Across from the train station there is a shop & local chippy.

I have used this station for many years and I found that the services here have improved. There…read moreused to be only 2 trains in 1 hour but now there is 4 and 2 are an express service. Two heading into Glasgow, terminating at Milngavie and Dalmuir and two heading to Hamilton and Motherwell, terminating at Motherwell, Larkhall and Lanark. The staff here are always pleasant, I had a lovely wee chat today. The main building is small and where the ticket office is, which also contains some seating. It's located on platform 1, heading into Glasgow. If you alight, as they say in the train jargon, on platform 2 look out for the two metal African men carrying a boat, I think. Not real metal men then that would be Cybermen. Eep! Anyway, follow the path beside them and head down Station Road and this takes you to the David Livingstone Centre. There's plenty of activity happening down there as they are celebrating his 200th birthday this year. Oooft he's got old. Hehe!

With Glasgow uniquely positioned in Scotland, traveling by train is the perfect options. Times are…read moreconvenient and fairly priced. The train station is dirty but the coach seat was perfect and clean once on the train. The passengers and workers were extremely friendly and helpful, making for a great, safe and comforting trip. The boarding process was quick and easy, especially with luggage. Although we had to carry our luggage up 1 stair, the train wasn't sold out so there was plenty of room for our many bags.

What's it called? Cumbernauld…read more While Greenfaulds station is more in the outskirts of Cumbernauld, Cumbernauld station itself is in a more central location in the town, ideal for the shopping centres, industrial estates and the college, though it is still a bit 'out of town' for most peoples' liking. Trains from Motherwell (every hour) terminate here, as do some of the half-hourly services from Glasgow Queen Street, while some of them continue to Falkirk Grahamston. So the station is well-served. Like I mentioned at Neilston station, terminating trains reverse on to the other platform prior to departure south, so bear this in mind if travelling. The station building with its ticket office, together with the footbridge and its surrounding area, makes this station look very similar to Bishopton on the Gourock line in my opinion. It's a popular station with commuters, which includes my big cousin who works in one of the said industrial estates. And with the very comfortable, table-fitted, air-conditioned trains that serve it, it's luxury travel for a twenty-minute journey.

However, it provides good links from Dennistoun to the city centre and west end, as well as services running to Springburn and beyond. I find the train to be a much more pleasant way to travel than the busy local buses, beating traffic and providing a much more comfortable method of travel. This station is ideal for those in the east end to hop on and off a train and be in town in no time, and if you're lucky enough, you might even be off the train before the conductor gets to you and get away with skipping the fare... bonus!

Bellgrove is a decent wee east-end train station…read more Covering both lines from Drumgelloch and Airdrie to Helensburgh and Balloch, and connecting with stations to Springburn, Bellgrove is slap bang in the middle of the city centre and the east end. It's in walking distance of Parkhead, Dennistoun, and not too far from the east-end/Barrowlands area of town. It's a relatively small station, with one platform down the middle where you can step on a train going in either direction. There is no manned ticket booth, but there are some seats and sheltered areas.

There aren't many facilities here other than the ticket office and a self service kiosk. Toilets are available free of charge inside the station but still look as if they are from the 1960's be advised that they vary opening times but usually open at 8am. The station is clean and tidy with a seating area inside whilst you wait for your train. Plenty of places to go if you are stuck here for a while. There is a news agents around the corner handy for juice and the daily papers.

Well it's kind of a mess right now as it's going through some major renovations. From what I've heard is things are being removed and replaced. Hopefully by the next time I've visited, it should be complete. The nice thing about this area, everything is all walking distance from each other. You can start off at a pub, move over to next. Get some shipping done, grab a meal and finish off at another pub. So many good restaurants that's all nearby. Both quick and easy places and sit down dining. Even loads of more upscale bars and restaurants. Just popping into different places and seeing what's there is really great. Major plus, with the train station ending there, it sure brings in loads of people. Daily and especially during the weekend.
