Whether it's changing on to the one to Queen Street via Falkirk or the route via Shotts (never done Bathgate), I definitely like the Carstairs route.

Probably plenty space on the Carstairs route these days

I like not changing but I'm not sure if it was just that particular journey I took was very dawdling, or seemed it at least. I was suppose to change but seen the train was going to Glasgow Central and decided to stay on, and I think I was quite late meeting my friends.
