Seven Sunday stops at station

Last month I posted a message about the announcement that Broughty Ferry Station is to receive an overall increase of 2 additional stops daily from Monday to Saturday from December 2012.

I have now been advised that  First ScotRail have also confirmed that Sunday services are to be introduced in the new timetable.

Currently no services call at Broughty Ferry on Sunday and this will increase to 7 calls as follows:

Northbound
09:37 Glasgow - Aberdeen service will call at Broughty Ferry at 11:18
16:05 Edinburgh - Aberdeen service will call at Broughty Ferry at 17:28
21:00 Edinburgh - Aberdeen service will call at Broughty Ferry at 22:28

Southbound
09:24 Aberdeen - Glasgow service will call at Broughty Ferry at 10:34
12:47 Aberdeen - Edinburgh service will call at Broughty Ferry at 14:00
19:07 Aberdeen - Edinburgh service will call at Broughty Ferry at 20:13
22:27 Aberdeen - Perth  service will call at Broughty Ferry at 23:38

I'm really pleased to see even more trains stopping at Broughty Ferry Station and I'm hopeful that this will eventually lead to the commuter service as envisaged in Tactran's Tay Estuary Rail Study.
