[BegbieHSC]

well, Scotrail have only banned booze for the outward trains between 10-12, so who's having a wee bevvy before 10? I'm fancying the 9:14!

[skyehibee]

Kings Park best station to go to from Central?

[18Hibee75]

Think I might go for the 9:14 one! Might get my hibs playlist playing if there's enough hibbys!

I went there for the cup final in May, it was about 10 minute walk down a straight road to Hampden. Just go under the tunnel as you get off the train. I can't remember the journey back- was on cloud 99🏆 Have a great day!

You can't drink alcohol on trains prior to 10am. It's a nationwide ban that's in place all year round.

They aren't for the whole weekend on the Edinburgh to Glasgow route.

yes it goes via Livingston and Shotts, check the times though as some longer than others as more stops. quicker train takes about 75 mins.

Mount florida much quicker will be Aberdeen fans on also but dont see an issue. Kings park a longer walk to ground but at Hibs end of the stadium

As long as discreet it's never a problem.

If your early enough its no problem but they start to segregate the trains so you end up having to go via kings park as that's the queue you'll end up in if you've got colours on. Coming back, the police won't let you through to mount Florida unless you walk the long way around which then becomes pointless and your better off using kings park.

Never stopped us going to every away this season. The police havent been bothered by it either.

[Onceinawhile]

I'll be on the twenty past 9 from Bathgate.

*Scotrail ban (Can bevvy on xCountry, Virgin East Coast before 10am. If you're sly about it they generally don't bother on the more regional routes)

BTP have advised Central Station ques and trains will be segregated, Hibs to Kings Park with the Dons getting Mt Florida.

I'm thinking of getting the 6.50 from Inverness, gets into Queen St at 10.16 then walk to Central for an 11.20 train to Kings Park.

[BlackSheep]

8.30 Waverley to Queen Street... quick pint in the Nor Loch prior to boarding and perhaps a bottle of irn bru (:wink:) for the journey!!

[NAE NOOKIE]

According to Scotrail Sunday will be bad between Edinburgh and Glasgow because of the Celtic v The Rangers semi. This was obviously a mistake, why would two Glasgow teams playing each other in Glasgow put pressure on the train service from Edinburgh to Glasgow? Am I missing something?

[AFKA5814_Hibs]

8.00 Waverley to Queen Street, just in time for 9am pub opening. :thumbsup:

Theres a free bus link (no.398) between QS, Bus Station and Central. Exit QS on the left of the platforms the stop is outside the exit.

There's a First Bus service 75 that goes to Hampden from Central Station and also Ingram Street, which is close to Queen Street Station.
Takes about 20 minutes (unless you're close to match time)

There's one from Ingram Street at 10.35, due at Hampden 10.52 (time for a pint :greengrin )

Thanks it was letting me see the train on scotrail online but I'll nip into the station just now. Not sure I can face getting the kids up at 4.30am so might just drive down if there's no room left. Either that or take my chances on the train.

I've checked and that is the train I'm on (06:50). even got a seat booked from Pitlochry to Perth. Only booked it this morning, picked up my tickets at lunchtime. Ticket office told me the ticket (Off-peak day return) wasn't valid :rolleyes:

Checked online, and all weekend tickets are off-peak! Thank F!!

yeah that was some detour of a walk that the polis sent us on after the falkirk SF(0-1) game, in the south this time so will be back to kings park afterwards i think

Yeah I just went into the station and got tickets. They couldn't make 3 seat reservations together though so I'm going to have to either sit separately from my 9y/o and 6y/o, hope someone in the reserved seats opposite will swap or take my chances in the unreserved bit.

Thanks, might get that instead, save me and the kids some walking!

Loads of services leaving from Waverley so we'll all get there eventually.

I take it we just queue up, pile on and it's pot luck wether you get one of the more direct ones or one that goes round the houses. Not bothered as long as there's toilets.

Less than ten minutes walk. Come out of GQS and turn right. Onto Buchanan Street and walk down until you hit Gordon St or Argyle St and turn right. You can't miss it.
If you've got a smartphone then just stick the station in and it will take you straight there.

On the 9.20 train and I think we're the only ones on it.

Probably end up in Dundee or somewhere lol

On the 9:30 with a thumping hangover.

I am currently wishing I was still in bed rather than going to a Scottish Cup semi-final.
