Apparently the railway station serves the village of Carstairs. Which is very strange because the station is a good interchange station as ScotRail trains coming from Glasgow Central and Edinburgh Waverley terminates at Carstairs. And Transpennine Express and Caledonian Sleeper trains do stop at Carstairs but not Avanti West Coast from London Euston.
Also why does ScotRail manage Lockerbie railway station but their trains don’t serve the station. Could ScotRail operate a Glasgow Central-Carlisle stopper service.
Now that is a question that I'm not sure of being honest. Glasgow Central-Carlisle stopper service maybe a possibility but doubtful but they currently got services via Klmarknock.
Sim0nTrains Or maybe Transpennine Express could manage Lockerbie station to allow their trains to stop there. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockerbie_railway_station
@@Andrewjg_89 Avanti West Coast and CrossCountry don't stop at Carstairs but sometimes TPE don't stop at Carstairs as well but only on the morning peak times, they do surprisingly.
