Avanti West Coast | Buy Train Tickets | No Booking Fee

Skip to main content

Until the end of Tuesday 17 March, Glasgow Central’s high level platforms (where Avanti West Coast trains run) are closed, with no trains able to run due to the impact of the nearby fire. Avanti West Coast trains will start and end at Motherwell, which you can reach using ScotRail services from Glasgow Central low level station (now reopened) or nearby stations.

From Wednesday 18 March, the high level platforms will partially reopen with one Avanti West Coast train per hour running to and from Glasgow Central. Station facilities including the Ticket Office, First Class Lounge and shops will remain closed. Please follow the temporary signage and barriers to find your way to and from trains. We'll also continue running trains to and from Motherwell and Edinburgh, where connections to Glasgow are available with ScotRail.

What are my ticket options?

Avanti West Coast tickets dated 8-19 March can be used at no extra cost on any Avanti West Coast train on the same route until the end of Thursday 19 March.
If your train is cancelled, your existing ticket will be accepted on one of the two Avanti West Coast services either side, including our hourly services to and from Glasgow Central from Wednesday 18 March onwards.
As well as an hourly Glasgow service from Wednesday, our trains will continue to run to and from Motherwell and Edinburgh, where you can then use your existing ticket at no extra cost with ScotRail to get to Glasgow Central low level, or the neighbouring stations of Anderston and Argyle Street. Please allow extra time for your journey and check before you travel at the link below.
No longer wish to travel? Due to the disruption, your unused ticket is eligible for a full refund (no admin fee). Claim your refund from where you bought your ticket.
