The Trainline - Your local station is Scotland

I got a promotional email from The Trainline today. Just how small do they think Scotland is?

Notice the highlighted text in the top-right (rounded) corner:

Great! Well I’m glad that puts an end to the discussion I was having the other night about whether Cupar or Leuchars railway station is closest to Anstruther. The definitive answer, from the railway ticket company is: Scotland!

    That’s fantastic. You should call them:

    Gareth: “Hello I’d like to get a train from Scotland to London”
    TTL: “Fine, where will you be leaving from?”
    Gareth: “Uhm, platform 4, I think”.

    From the banner: “the easy way to buy tickets”
    Yes so easy since there is really only 1 station available to us Scots!
