Do you think this is a good idea?
He told The Herald: “There certainly have been calls for a number of years for that line to be used as part of the network which would require both electrification and one or more new stations. It is currently used for moving empty diesel trains around, special tourist trains, and I think possibly some freight., and the other parts of the rail system have not shown much enthusiasm so far.
“Another possibility would be a station at Glasgow Cross which would allow transfers between the higher level Crossrail line and the lower level Argyle line. However, I do accept that there would be a fair cost for this. Transport Minister Kevin Stewart said that, although no plans are in place for a new station at Glasgow Cross, plans for The Clyde Metro Mass Transit System"would allow for more effective rail operations".
“Notwithstanding the work on Clyde Metro, there remains a path for regional or local rail projects to come forward. If a strong business case is presented for a rail intervention these will be considered further in line with the Scottish Government’s investment priorities for the strategic transport network. ”
