NEW BRITRAIL CENTRAL SCOTLAND PASS JOINS BRITRAIL’S SCOTTISH AND IRISH RAIL PASS LINE UP
NEW YORK, NEW YORK MARCH 1, 2008 The BritRail Central Scotland Pass is a new rail pass option that allows travelers to explore Scotland’s capital, Edinburgh and its ‘second city’, Glasgow, along with the surrounding area for one flat fare. You might choose to base yourself in either city, travel between the two and visit nearby tourist destinations like Stirling as many times as you like on any 3 days during a one week period. The BritRail Central Scotland Pass also includes free travel on Glasgow’s Underground trains. The cost is just $84US for standard class travel. One could easily spend 3 days exploring just one or the other of these fascinating cities. From Edinburgh Castle to Glasgow’s eclectic Burrell Collection; from royal Holyrood House to Charles Rennie Mackintosh’s House for an Art Lover and on to the fortress that is Stirling Castle, nothing could be simpler than hopping on one of the frequent trains operating along these local rail routes.
For travelers wanting more than just a brief taste of Scotland, the BritRail Scottish Freedom Pass is still on tap. For either 4 days within an 8 day period or 8 days within 15, this popular multi-modal product opens all of Scotland to you: rail routes throughout this spectacularly beautiful country and many local buses and ferries allow you to get off the beaten track and find your inner Scot. It’s all included at $247US for 4 days, $331US for 8 days of standard class travel.
