.Wooft Illusion shattered.

Not having to climb takes half the fun out of it surely...

Watching how works are being phased @NetworkRailGQS to keep Queen Street station operational while it’s a building site is a masterclass in construction design management. Most commuters won’t think for a second about the logistics and planning involved in keeping them safe.

Two cranes towering majestically over #GQS, as we undertake the installation of the final roofing sections and cladding to the station’s east gable. Pretty impressive…

As well as passing various stage-gates, the #LEGO #ForthBridge ultimately needs 10,000 votes to succeed

Wouldn’t it be great if the railway community got behind this @rail !

You can create an account & vote at https://t.co/CZof8lofHv and support this #awesome campaign.

[Network Rail Scotland @NetworkRailSCOT]

The #ForthBridge is in #Glasgow Central today as part of a campaign to get #LEGO to produce a replica model of the iconic civil engineering marvel.

The 4.7m long model looks great, so stop & have a look, find out more and vote for this to be #Scotland’s next top (Lego) model.

The rescue boat is on stand-by on the river for the entire duration of each work shift while the team is on the bridge carrying out the work.

We hope that we will never need them but it is good to know that they are there – just in case !

[Network Rail Scotland @NetworkRailSCOT]

As refurbishment work continues on bridge over the River #Clyde on approach to #Glasgow Central, it is important that we are prepared in the event that someone falls into the water from the scaffolding.

This is how we do it. #ClydeBridge

[Network Rail Scotland @NetworkRailSCOT]

Thanks to our #ChainsawGang, tree on line at #Dunkeld impacting service btwn #Inverness & #Glasgow - #Edinburgh has been removed.

Sorry if you were inconvenienced by this.

It again shows why it is important we remove lineside vegetation to protect both safety & performance.

[Glasgow Queen Street @NetworkRailGQS]

Even on a wet and rainy Friday afternoon, the glass frontage to #GQS looks gorgeous!

[Glasgow Queen Street @NetworkRailGQS]

The majority of trains into #GQS will be unaffected during platform closure however, there will be alterations to some services with full details available at: https://t.co/AgzsDFSKdx

[Glasgow Queen Street @NetworkRailGQS]

During platform closure, engineers will dig out sections of concourse, rebuild sections of platform walls, lay new track & connect to existing infrastructure, extend overhead power lines, install coping stones, and carry-out re-surfacing works. #GQS

[Glasgow Queen Street @NetworkRailGQS]

As part of the £120m project to enhance & expand Scotland’s third-busiest station, platforms 4 & 5 will close from Monday, 16 September and reopen for start of service on Monday, 14 October #GQS

[Glasgow Queen Street @NetworkRailGQS]

Following the recent completion of extensions to platforms 2 & 3, we will now undertake the same activity at platforms 4 & 5.

Extending platforms by 26m enables longer trains of up to eight carriages to use station – providing more seats for passengers. #GQS
