The 21-year-old had to take a four-and-a-half-hour taxi from Dalmuir to Fort William and a second taxi onto Mallaig that took an hour and a half.
The Masters student slammed ScotRail for 'not taking enough action' as passengers are 'left stranded' up and down stations on the West Highland line over the holiday weekend.
He told Glasgow Live: "I sympathise with staff who are striking over pay but ScotRail could be doing more here.
"ScotRail paid for my two taxis which was great, but dealing with me, just one person, is easy.
"What about whole groups of passengers who they can't just stick in a taxi?
"At Fort William I met a group of tourists stranded because only one service was running to Glasgow Queen Street that day, at 11.30am, and they missed it.
"This is a holiday weekend, running so few services is unacceptable."

Jack only found out the service was cancelled upon his arrival at Dalmuir where staff arranged for a local taxi to give him a lift to Fort William - lasting four and a half hours.
"The cancelled service was only running from Crianlarich, Perthshire," Jack added.
"I was put in a taxi to Fort William and hopped on the train when it stopped there.
"I missed the train, so a second taxi was arranged to take me from there on to Mallaig."
He added: "My journey was delayed by over half an hour so I'm entitled to compensation which only works out to around £15 but it's the principle.
"ScotRail need to put on more services."
ScotRail chiefs apologised for the disruption.
David Simpson, the firm's service delivery director, said: “We’re sorry to our customers for the disruption they are facing as a result of the reduction in services, and we share their frustration.
“We’re keen to resolve the dispute as soon as possible and the timetable will operate for as long as it needs to in order to provide a more dependable service.
“The timetable is being regularly reviewed and we were able to add some additional late-night services last weekend, that will help to keep customers moving.
"We advise customers to check their journey before they travel."
