Football fans travelling to Scotland‘s Nations League between Ukraine and the Republic of Ireland at Hampden are being helped along by ScotRail this week.

ScotRail are adding extra services and seats to aid those travelling to Mount Florida for the games.

Due to the large crowds expected at both games, there will be queuing systems in place at Glasgow Central and Mount Florida to help people board safely.

Those travelling should allow extra time to get to and from locations as a result of the queuing systems and due to services being busier than normal.

Those not attending the games, who use Neilston services should also take into account the increase of users on the trains.

Extra staff will be on hand to help customers get to and from the games and passengers are reminded about the alcohol ban on trains.

Additional information can be found on ScotRails website: scotrail.co.uk/sport.

Phil Campbell, ScotRail Head of Customer Operations, said: “We’re adding more seats to trains between Glasgow Central and Mount Florida to help fans get to these two crucial Nations League qualifiers against Ukraine and the Republic of Ireland.

“To keep everyone moving as quickly and safely as possible customers should plan their journeys in advance and buy their return tickets to Mount Florida before they board.

“Fans should also head back to the station as soon as they can after the final whistle to avoid leaving it until the last train of the night to get home.

“We wish the Scotland men’s national team the best of luck for these two matches which could help us reach the play-offs for the next European Championships in 2024.”
