add a train station in plains

Rejected 13 signatures

What the petition asks

We want a train station in plains, airdrie as it will be easier to travel to even for the local residents as the busses are completely useless and don’t even arrive on time or even show up and are every house which is an inconvenience but adding a train station would be so much easier for people

It’s not fair that coatdyke, high street get train stations and plains train station got shut down the trains run by plains heading to caldercruix anyways so why can’t they be a station it’s not fair the the closest station is about a 30-40 min walk and people can’t walk that long to head to the station and the busses stop after 5pm anyways which doesn’t help at all so please add a plains train station
