By Public Transport:

First off in order to make it to the site early enough, you need to get into Glasgow city centre for 8:30.

Buchanan Bus Station:
get the City Link bus that runs Glasgow - Edinburgh (these are fairly frequent) getting a ticket to HARTHILL (only bout £3.50/£4.00). Get off bus at Harthill, its the first stop the bus will make once it starts on the motorway, its about 1/2 an hour down the road and is a by a dis-used "Little Chef". From Harthill cross the motorway bridge, and follow the road on the other side up through a small housing scheme till you get to a main road. From here you should see a "Spar" type shop and a newsagents. Welcome to the-middle-of-nowhere. From here call Sandy's Taxis on 01501 752184 or 07050168217. You have a better chance calling the mobile number. Explain you are going to the airsoft site out by Allanton and he'll run you up for £10. Sandy wont go up the dirt track, so walk up the path for 10 minutes and you cannot miss the safezone on the left at a fork in the road.

Leaving Glasgow on a bus before 9 gets you to the site for a bout 9:50/10:00 depending on how fast you walk up the wee hill. Total cost is £6.00 per person and the quickest way to Shotts on a Sunday without a lift.
