MV Caledonian Isles
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The MV Caledonian Isles is one of the largest ships in the Caledonian MacBrayne fleet. Caledonian MacBrayne operates ferries in the Hebridean and Clyde Islands of Scotland. MV Caledonian Isles serves the route from Ardrossan to Brodick on the Isle of Arran. As it one of Caledonian MacBrayne's busiest routes, MV Caledonian Isles has the largest passenger capacity in the fleet, and can carry up to 1000 passengers and 120 cars. It is used extensively by daytrippers to the Isle of Arran during the summer. During the night it is berthed at Ardrossan.
It has several sailings a day in both directions. It leaves Ardrossan at: 0700, 0945, 1230, 1515 and 1800, and it leaves Brodick at: 0820, 1105, 1350, 1640 and 1920. In the summer of 2005, the services to Arran were supplemented by the MV Saturn, and it is likely that this will be repeated this summer.
Sailings are met at Ardrossan by the SPT train service to Glasgow Central from Ardrossan Harbour railway station.
