Cumbernauld is with out a doubt one of the most souless towns in Scotland. I had the misfortune of growing up with the area. Cumbernauld is split in to 'schemes' all of which contain there own little suburban villages and schools. It is the desire of a good many people to get out of Cumbernauld and i am among there number. There are three main access points out of cumbernauld. Cumbernauld Train, Croy Train and Cumbernauld Bus - stations. Croy Train station is on the outskirts of the newest sections of cumbernauld in the Forth and Clyde Valley. The Other train Station is situated in Kildrum, near abronhill. The station only has a line that runs to glasgow. Croy station however runs to both edinburgh and glasgow. Including stops in Stirlling, and routes to Falkirk. The large mall type shopping centre contains the Bus station, with either side of the carraieway being used for bus lanes. The 'Town centre' as the building is known is not one massive bus station as many vistors assume. It is perhaps the simplest form of transit from the centre of cumbernauld to elsewhere. As opposed to going via glasgow. I commend you get out of new towns now, and try somewhere witha sense of community before the middle class suburban knightmare consumes you.
