⛔️Storm Éowyn ⛔️ With the safety of customers and staff of paramount importance, we will not be safe to operate passenger services due to the forecast weather conditions across Scotland during #StormÉowyn. All ScotRail services are suspended on Friday, 24 January. We strongly advise you not to travel, as there will be no train services, and no alternative transport will be available. The Met Office issued an upgraded red warning for Storm Éowyn, which is expected to arrive in Scotland in the morning on Friday, 24 January, bringing extremely high winds, with gusts reaching 100mph in some parts. The red warning will be in place from 10.00 to 17.00 and covers central Scotland, Tayside, Fife, south west Scotland, Lothian, Borders, and Strathclyde. There is also an amber warning for wind across the rest of the country and a yellow warning for snow covering much of the highlands. This could lead to trees and other debris falling onto the tracks, trapping trains and putting people in danger. It can also impact service recovery times due to poor road and driving conditions. Once the warnings pass, the network will have to undergo safety inspections before services can be reintroduced. Please check the ScotRail website or app before travelling on Saturday morning. Tickets for travel dated 24 January can now be used from Thursday, 23 January, up to and including Tuesday, 28 January. This means that these can be used before or after the date printed on the ticket. If your journey has been cancelled or disrupted, you can get a fee-free refund at scotrail.co.uk/refund. It’s vital that you check your journey before travelling. You can do this via the following channels: - ScotRail App - JourneyCheck.com/ScotRail Plus, you can get the latest updates when you follow us on social media @ScotRail. ℹ️ scotrail.co.uk/about-scotrai…

🎟️ Don't use @thetrainline 🛤️ Their model relies on hidden fees, deceptive ticket options, and overpriced fares – all designed to boost shareholder profits at the public’s expense. These are their major shareholders 🔽 Read @RMTunion's article. xitter.cf/RMTunion/status/185441…

📢 From Sunday, 2 June, our train shuttle between Ayr and Prestwick Town will be withdrawn. Buses will operate between Ayr and Prestwick Town. Please change at Prestwick for connections to Glasgow. This is to allow @NetworkRailSCOT infrastructure works to be carried out.

⚠️ All services across the country are currently suspended due to severe weather from #StormIsha. There will be no rush hour services on Monday morning, routes will require inspection by @NetworkRailScot before any trains operate. Check back for updates. xitter.cf/NetworkRailSCOT/status…
Replying to @NetworkRailSCOT
⛔️ /2 Lines will remain closed on Monday morning. Each route must be inspected by our engineers for damage and fallen trees/debris, which means it will be later on Monday before any trains can run. We will of course keep you up to date on our progress.
