Severe weather causes major disruptions to ScotRail services across Scotland.
ScotRail is currently facing significant disruptions to its train services due to the impact of Storm Darragh, which has led to delays and cancellations affecting numerous routes across Scotland. Travelers heading to and from Inverness, Aberdeen, and Oban are particularly affected, with many services either suspended or running behind schedule.
As of now, services to Elgin and Inverurie have been completely suspended, while other routes are experiencing delays of up to 30 minutes.
The situation is fluid, with ongoing cancellations and revisions to train schedules. ScotRail has advised passengers to check their entire journey before setting out, as the weather conditions are expected to persist.
A spokesperson for ScotRail stated, “Due to Storm Darragh, weather disruption is expected to last until noon on Sunday, December 8.” This warning highlights the severity of the weather conditions, which have prompted the implementation of blanket speed restrictions across various routes.
These restrictions are anticipated to extend journey times significantly, particularly for services between Glasgow Queen Street and Aberdeen.
Travelers are urged to remain updated on their travel plans as the situation evolves. ScotRail has indicated that disruptions are likely to continue until the storm passes, with specific routes such as Aberdeen to Edinburgh and Aberdeen to Inverness facing delays. Passengers are encouraged to follow ScotRail’s official channels for the latest information and updates regarding their travel.
As the storm continues to affect train services, our reporters are diligently working to provide the latest updates on this developing story. For real-time information, travelers can follow The Press and Journal on Facebook and online for breaking news and updates on ScotRail services.
