ScotRail is urging fans to allow more time for their journeys and to expect services to be busier than normal during a big weekend of cup football in Glasgow. Weekend engineering works on some routes also mean that replacement buses will be in operation, meaning longer journey times for those travelling to Hampden Park.
Celtic are set to take on Kilmarnock at 5:30pm on Saturday, January 14, with Rangers then facing Aberdeen FC at 3pm on Sunday, January 15. Rail bosses say they are running as many services as possible to help fans travel to the games, including additional trains to and from Mount Florida before and after the matches.
Due to planned Network Rail engineering works, replacement buses will be in operation between Kilmarnock and Glasgow as well as between Dundee and Aberdeen. Fans travelling on either of those routes will need to allow more time for their journeys as buses will take considerably longer with fewer seats available.
