As a West Highland Expert the first shot where the trains are shown joining is Crianlarich. The second shot where the 156s are crossing is definitely Ardlui. I think you got a little mixed up!
Fully agree, I was in Strathclyde last month and went to Arrochar, and the Scotrail 156s are NOT suitable for a journey of this length, given the seats are lower & not as comfortable as the higher backed seats on Northern Rails 156s which operate in my neck of the woods in Cumbria.
DMUs operating the WHL need to be alot more comfortable, the Transpennine 185s would be especially good for this route as they are spacious, have a first class section and are 21st century standard.
First bit of the video is the sign at Ardlui; Trains don't couple or divide at Ardlui, the train arriving at the station that is Crianlarich & the last bit of the video is Ardlui where the two trains cross over
The 4 or 6-car train from Glasgow Queen Street divides at Crianlarich not Ardlui

Definitely Crianalrich - you can see the station master's house at the top of the Brae and the Block behind that.

Traveling on a 156 or any DMU is not the way to do the WHL, they are noisy cramped and cheap looking inside. Class 37s and Mk2s are the way to go!
