PHONE-IN
Appearing before Holyrood's Net Zero, Energy and Transport Committee last month, Alex Hynes, who leaves his post as managing director of Scotland's Railway this week, told MSPs there was 'no clear winner in terms of public opinion on the alcohol ban on ScotRail trains'. 'The alcohol ban divides opinion,' he said. 'Everyone has a view on it. Some people would love to be able to drink on trains and some people are vehemently against drinking on trains. ScotRail’s Chief Operating Officer Joanne Maguire agreed. She said there was 'roughly around a 50/50 split on views of alcohol'.

Strict rules forbidding drinking were brought in just under four years ago at the start of the pandemic in a bid to keep travellers socially distant. Previously, passengers could drink after 10am and before 9pm and were able to buy beer, wine and spirits on most trains.
