Scotland’s busiest station to run reduced trains timetable after estimated 953,000 passenger journeys affected so far
Scotland’s busiest station, Glasgow Central, will partially reopen its main concourse on Wednesday, including for cross-border services, after a fire gutted the Victorian building next to it.
There will be a reduced timetable, including a scaled-down service to London Euston, and passengers are asked to check journeys before travelling.
An estimated 953,000 passenger journeys were affected over the last week after a fire believed to have started in a vape shop on Union Street ravaged the Grade B-listed building adjoining the station.
Glasgow Central typically handles about 116,000 journeys a day, with approximately 103,000 through the high-level station to destinations across the UK and 13,000 local services through the city, suburbs and outlying towns through the low-level station.
