All aboard the Brangelina Express: Pitt and Jolie in Glasgow

BRAD Pitt and Angelina Jolie arrived in Scotland in real movie-star style - but let down fans who had waited for hours to see them

BRAD Pitt and Angelina Jolie arrived in Scotland in real movie-star style yesterday - but let down fans who had waited for hours to see them.

Crowds had gathered at Glasgow Central station from early in the day in the hope of getting a glimpse of the Hollywood A-listers.

But when the couple and their six kids got off their specially chartered train, they dodged excited fans by climbing straight into a blacked-out people-carrier on the platform.

And to get the several hundred-strong crowd off the scent, a Brad lookalike was sent down the platform to fool onlookers.

Claire Anderson, 21, of Partick, Glasgow, said: "We hoped to get a wee look at Brad and we feel let down and a bit annoyed at the way they did it.

"They backed a car right up nearly touching the train and we couldn't see a thing. There was even some plonker holding an orange vest above head to block people's view even further.

"We were really looking forward to seeing and Angelina so it disappointing."

Lorna Docherty, 24, of Paisley, said: "You couldn't at all. It just left feeling a bit frustrated.

"There would probably would have less of a fuss for the Minister."

A large area of Glasgow Central was cordoned off and a 14-car motorcade was allowed on to platform 11 to meet the Jolie-Pitt entourage at 2.30pm.

Some passengers complained that they missed trains because of the chaos.

Debbie Stevenson, of East Kilbride, got caught in the crowd with kids Charlotte, six, and Zach, three.

She said: "We missed our train thanks to Brad Pitt. I suppose it's a claim to fame."

Pitt, 47, Jolie, 36, and kids Maddox, nine, Pax, seven, Zahara, six, Shiloh, five, and three-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne had climbed aboard the 12-carriage Virgin train in London's Euston station with a huge team of security guards and film crew.

When they arrived in Glasgow, the family jumped into a Mercedes people-carrier and were whisked out of the station escorted by police motorcyclists.

A Network Rail spokesman said: "Due to the large number of spectators in the station, it was necessary to restrict access to some platforms to prevent them becoming congested. Passengers with a valid ticket were still able to travel as planned.

"It was in the interests of the safe operation of the station to get the cast and crew out as quickly as possible by using the driveway rather than walking them through the station."

For the next fortnight, Pitt will be filming his new movie World War Z in Glasgow. The family have been in London for the last few weeks while he filmed scenes for the £80million movie in Cornwall.

George Square has been transformed to resemble Philadelphia, complete with yellow taxis, US-style road signs and American cop cars.

The film is set in the aftermath of a war between humans and zombies.

It is due out next year.
