By Rail
There are direct rail services from Paisley Gilmour Street to Glasgow
Central, Ayr and Clyde Coast destinations. There are eight trains
per hour (Monday-Saturday) and five per hour (Sunday) from Gilmour
Street to Glasgow Central. If you need to transfer from Central
station to either Queen Street station or Buchanan bus station,
you can use bus service 398 which runs every 10 minutes between
07:00 and 22:00 Monday to Saturday and 10:00 and 22:00 Sunday. This
service is free on production of a valid rail ticket, or 50p to
other users.
Through rail tickets from Glasgow Airport to Glasgow Central station,
via Paisley Gilmour Street station, can be purchased from the SPT
Travel Centre on the ground floor of the terminal building, adjacent
to UK arrivals. For travel to any other station, the ticket should
be surrendered at the Gilmour Street booking office and you will
obtain a discount equal to the value of the bus ticket from the
cost of a rail ticket to any station in Scotland.
When travelling to the airport from any station in Scotland, you
simply ask for a rail ticket to Glasgow Airport and this is then
valid on the train to Paisley Gilmour Street and the Arriva bus
service from Paisley to the airport.
