Aberdeen station is nice and bright. Could not work out why the train stopped short of the central area where the access footbridge is, only to drive out passed it on departure. the result lots of passengers simply had further to walk.....railways are run for passengers not the convenience of the operating companies.....1 lost mark there Scotrail/Aberdeen station.
.
Otherwise the station was light and airy, and attached to a shopping centre making it very conveneient for the locals.
.
One point to mention is that following the alarm incident I had held on as I did not want the embarrassment of also setting the alarm off. At Aberdeen station the toilets are barrier controlled and its 20p to have a pee.
.
Luckily, as I was in a rush and didn't have 20p, the barrier was broken and I along with many others enjoyed a free "p" on Scotrail....thank you.
.
Overall Aberdeen station gets a 6/10 losing marks for the walk/broken electronic signs and 20p charge.
