TSSA welcomes Glasgow Central reopening after fire disruption  

Rail union TSSA has welcomed news that Glasgow Central station will reopen all platforms as of Wednesday (25^th March). The move comes two weeks after a serious fire nearby caused the collapse of buildings.  

Commenting, TSSA General Secretary Maryam Eslamdoust said: “We are pleased to see the reopening of Scotland’s busiest railway station after such significant disruption to train services. 

“Following the intensity of the fire it was vital that the authorities, led by Network Rail, were given the time needed to undertake thorough safety work, making a full assessment of the infrastructure throughout the station.  

“Our union pays tribute to all those who have worked so hard to get Glasgow Central to the point where it will be able to welcome back passengers and see normal services running once again. As ever safety on the railways must come first.”
