  • Route strips and stations: from TfL's route data, which lacks the six stations opened since 2019 (Robroyston, Kintore, Inverness Airport, East Linton, Leven and Cameron Bridge, so there is no Levenmouth strip); where two routes share both ends only the longer is drawn, which leaves out the Fife Circle via Dunfermline (Rosyth to Cardenden) and Drumry and Drumchapel; and some names are TfL's, such as Queens Park (Glasgow)
  • Stations: counted from TfL's route data; ScotRail manages 360 (ORR), including Reston, where only other operators' trains call
  • Fleets of the 156, 158 and 170, and the split of the 320s (Wikipedia, checked against ORR's totals of 649 electric and 271 diesel vehicles in March 2025)
  • HST sets: 25 (Wikipedia gives 9 four-coach and 17 five-coach sets, one four-coach set lost at Carmont in 2020; ORR's 117 coaches fits 8 and 17)
  • Depots: only the two named in the sources are listed
