A GLASGOW nun has lambasted rail bosses over what she claims is the unacceptable poor standard of rail services connecting the city with Fort William.
Sister Ishbel MacPherson, a native of Fort William who has lived in Glasgow for many years, told the Lochaber Times how the morning train she was travelling on from Glasgow’s Queen Street Station to Fort William on Monday July 24, stopped at Crianlarich.
‘All the passengers bound for Fort William and Mallaig were asked to disembark and to board a bus for the remainder of their journey. When I asked a member of staff what the reason was, I was told it was because there was not enough crew,’ said Sister MacPherson. ‘Being a pensioner, I could have travelled on the bus for free if I’d known about the train problems, instead of spending £53.40 only to be deposited in Crianlarich and told to get on a bus. There was no advance warning at Queen Street Station so I didn’t get a choice.
