Glad to see the airport rail link is really taking shape now.

the rail link will be completed in 2011,
Just in time, that's probably the next time I'll be able to afford a holiday.

If 12 becomes 14 and 13 becomes 15, then oh wondrous ET what will become of platforms 14 and 15 on the low level?
I know 14 becomes 16 and 15 becomes 17.
Oh and on the 26th dec there are NO train services through low level and 27-29 services ONLY DURING the day.
As stated on NR website. Report properly IDIOTS.

Platform 11a is being extended into the concourse so 11a will become platform 12. WTF does this mean?
[quote]Platform 13 is the number to be given to a new platform being built to accommodate passengers travelling to the airport.[/quote]

If Glasgow's Crossrail link were built along with GARL, there would be no need for any renumbering or a new platform - simply diversion of a few services currently terminating at Central to accommodate the airport trains.

I still see the rail link as a waste of money. It will only link to Glasgow central. A lot of people go further to Queen street and the bus station.
I see the buses being quicker, cheaper and more direct than the trains.

[quote]Platform 11a is being extended into the concourse so 11a will become platform 12. WTF does this mean?[/quote] 11a is just a little stubby platform way out over the Clyde. I assume they're going to extend it inwards, into where the carpark currently is.

[quote]If Glasgow's Crossrail link were built along with GARL, there would be no need for any renumbering or a new platform[/quote] I'm sure a couple of new platforms and a few signs are much less than £200m...
Crossrail is a bad idea. It would be a slow journey and take lots of people away from where they want to go (Central). If you want to go to Edinburgh, fly there. Otherwise, it'd be quicker to go to Central and walk.
If Crossrail doesn't get the go-ahead in the STPR it'll be dead for a generation (at least in the SPT-proposed form). AT least I hope so.
