More direct trains to Glasgow for Tayside commuters by end of 2011

Rail commuters in Tayside are set to benefit from improved timetables to Glasgow, it has been claimed.

Transport Scotland has announced that from December First Scotrail will provide more direct trains between Glasgow and Perth and Dundee, including several services at peak periods.

Three new services will operate from Glasgow to Dundee, with two new services travelling in the opposite direction from Dundee to Glasgow. All of these services will also stop at Perth station.

In addition two of the current Glasgow to Perth services will be extended through to Dundee. Perth will also benefit from additional services between Glasgow and Inverness stopping at Perth.

Will Dawson, chairman of Tayside and Central Scotland Transport Partnership (Tactran), welcomed the changes to the rail timetables.

“This builds upon the early morning Dundee to Glasgow service recently introduced in May,” he said. “Together these services will improve transport links between Dundee and Perth to Glasgow.

“Tactran, through its Tay Estuary Rail Study, has been working in partnership with Transport Scotland, Network Rail and First Scotrail to introduce more frequent rail services between Dundee, Perth and the central belt and also for more local services.”
