Extra trains in place for Scotland v Denmark World Cup qualifier at Hampden Park
Scotland is just one game away from qualifying for the World Cup finals next summer in North America.
A win over Denmark at Hampden Park on Tuesday (November 18) will bring an end to the county’s nearly three-decade wait – with Scotland last appearing at the tournament in 1998.
ScotRail will be providing extra trains ahead of the match which is set to kick off at 7.45pm. Mount Florida is the closest station and is a five-minute walk to Hampden Park. Additional services have been scheduled between Glasgow Central and Mount Florida before and after the final whistle, with longer trains also being used to provide more seats.
Are being encouraged to allow extra time for entry into the ground. Queuing systems will be in place at Glasgow Central before the game and at Mount Florida after the final whistle, so fans should head back to Mount Florida station as quickly as possible when the match ends.
Return train tickets can be bought before boarding, through the ScotRail app, website, at a ticket office, or from a self-service ticket machine.
Phil Campbell, ScotRail customer operations director, said: “This match could be a moment in history for Scotland’s men’s football team, the first time in almost 30 years that we’ll have been at the greatest sporting show on earth.
“And to help supporters get to the match smoothly, we’ll be running extra services and adding more seats to trains to and from Mount Florida station - which is just a short walk from the stadium.
“Travelling with ScotRail is a convenient, reliable, and sustainable way to get to the game, and to ensure an effortless experience, we’re encouraging fans to plan their journey, allow a bit of extra time for travel, and buy return tickets in advance.
“Come on Scotland!”
