Glasgow and football. fast answer needed?


I'm going to Hampden tonight and I just want to make sure there is only ONE mount florida rail station because when I type it in google maps, it shows me that Hampden Park is a 20 mins car ride away from the park but then sometimes it says its a 5 minute walk.
So is there only one Mount Florida rail station and does it definitely go next to Hampden?
Thanks!

thanks very much, just checking!

Yes there is only one Mount Florida Railway Sation and if you tripped getting off the train you would probably role into hampden Park before you got back up on your feet.Hope that answers your question

Mount Florida station on the Cathcart Circle is the nearest, and safest, station to use.

Strathclyde Police will have the short walk from the station to Hampden fully manned throughout - so you cannot even get lost!

On a non-football day, it is a five minute walk, but on match day, allow fifteen.

First ScotRail will operate additional trains between Glasgow Central and Mount Florida, often using the Neilston Line as a "parking" facility for the additional rolling stock. Alcohol will be banned on all Cathcart Circle trains after 4pm.

There are so many big games at Hampden (after all, Queens Park play there!), that the whole process is tried, tested and well practicised.
