When the annocer voice says: 'This is a request stop.' Do you have to tell the conductor that you want to get off there. And also at the station, do u have to put your arm out to stop the train so that you can get on?

You answered it yourself:P

I do advise you to to take a fan with you and losts of water etc. as the train does get very hot our 158s are very unreliable and the air-con is usually a constant failure

I've walked it when I worked for NR and it took me 5 mins along the track. Good walk across the Shin.

Not quite as good as the old days with a pair of 26s on the 0615 from Inverness to Wick & Thurso

[156499SuperSprinter]

37's would be nicer:P, Thanks for the comment

PS. 156 would do just fine:P

great footbridge here-its abutted onto the railway bridge=so quite interesting when shared with a train

Yeah, think about Argyle Street Station to GLC underground - you can SEE Argyle Street from Glasgow Central!
