00:00What do you think of Glasgow's public transport system?

00:06Not the best, not the worst.

00:08Not too bad, not too bad.

00:11Expensive.

00:13Could be a lot better.

00:15Scott Royal's pretty decent in comparison to other trains I've been to, so yeah, pretty cool.

00:21Well, I'm not too far away from here, so there's always a bus in.

00:26Boom, okay, you've got a subway that only works in half of city.

00:31I'd probably say it needs to run a wee bit later and have more reliable services.

00:36Bus system that's just chaotic.

00:39You're closing down all the roads to make bus lanes and bike lanes.

00:46The train service, eachy-peachy.

00:50If you want to move anywhere fast, you're as well jumping on a train than using a bus,

00:54depending on what time of the day it is.

00:58And what do you think about the trains?

01:00In comparison to Germany trains, they're the top tier, so I'd probably say in comparison to them,

01:07they could probably learn a lot.

01:09I just feel that I get the bus in Union Street.

01:12It's quite a bad area.

01:14There's housing for the drug addicts, so they're all standing at the bus stop and it's quite intimidating.

01:23Putting on extra services, particularly for if there's events going on in Glasgow or Edinburgh,

01:28I think they really feel there.

01:30And there's been a couple of times I've had to leg it for the last train.

01:32I don't even know what goes on now, but it's just all money orientated.

01:37If it's at night, it's not really safe, particularly for women.

01:40So, yeah, no services for different bits.

01:44No one gets away from this train.

02:02And then, no, unfortunately, you can see a lot of things.
