Just go to the Scotland section, go to 'plan your journey' and type in the details (from ipswich, to glasgow, and uncheck all the boxes except rail) to get these results:

The quickest option looks like taking a train to london (liverpool st), then underground to london euston station, and from there to glasgow central station. Here's the details:

You can get the exact details and links to buy tickets if you put in your journey dates and times.

Hope that helps!

The cheaper route, which takes about the same time, is Ipswich to Peterborough, to Edinburgh, to Glasgow. The "open" fare is about 80% of the fare via London.

Ipswich to London (Liverpool Street) then tube to Euston. Then Euston to Glasgow.
