I think Glasgow City Council have a plan for a "Glasgow International Rail Station" near the St James Interchange that would have pods or some other type of people mover into the airport. There are car parks in this area that could also be served by the link. It's a battle for use of funding that was made available by Westminster between Glasgow and Renfrewshire, who want to link to Paisley Gilmour Street.
One of the reports I read last week showed this plan but only mentioned Gilmour Street. It's down the page a bit.
