Scope
This article seems uncertain of its scope. At times it is restricted to National Expresses, at other points it also covers British Rail, and in a few areas even First is included. Perhaps the British Rail and National Express sections should be separated, and the First information removed to First ScotRail? David Arthur (talk) 21:27, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
New ScotRail brand/Merger with First ScotRail
Transport Scotland have now introduced a new ScotRail brand, to be rolled out across Scotland. Therefore, this page should be moved to ScotRail (train operating company), and a new page created about this new brand. This page would also include information on the origins of the brand from British Rail. See this link for more details. --Jorvik (talk) 20:24, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
- I agree. This page and the current First ScotRail pages should be merged. Seeing as ScotRail will now be the brand no matter who is operating one concise ScotRail page with historical information on the brand and past franchises along with information on the company today would be desirable.

- If we're going to have one article covering the entire history of ScotRail, which sounds like a good idea to me, isn't the suffix (train operating company) unneeded? David Arthur (talk) 13:39, 13 March 2009 (UTC)
- Yeah, simply ScotRail seems the way forward, with older pages redirecting to it. (Jacqueline2008 (talk) 14:14, 16 March 2009 (UTC))
- Disagree. Keep Status Quo. To combine the articles is not the way forward. Take other now defunct TOCS, like GNER whose services are still largely the same, with just a different company operating it. They still have an separate entry. How would this fit in with the Template:Defunct_UK_TOCs? It's just because the names are similar that confusion happens. This is not good enough reason to merge.--86.155.186.118 (talk) 23:07, 18 March 2009 (UTC)
