π·ββοΈπ·ββοΈ Hello. We own, operate and develop Scotland's Railway infrastructure. Follow your train operator or @nationalrailenq for train service updates.
A rare chance to get up close to an iconic railway structure today, and to hear about the work which goes into keeping the Forth Bridge in good condition by @NetworkRailSCOT and @balfourbeatty engineers. Of course, we had to watch an @LNER Azuma pass over on its way from Aberdeenβ¦
β Services on the East Coast Main Line south of Edinburgh are no longer affected by the earlier speed restriction due to heavy rain. We're working with train operators to get trains back on time ASAP. @ScotRail @LNER @TPExpressTrains @CrossCountryUK @LumoTravel
βοΈ We've imposed a speed restriction between Edinburgh Waverley and Musselburgh on the East Coast Main Line due to extreme rainfall. We're keeping a close eye on this, and hopeful we can return to normal ASAP. @LNER @TPExpressTrains @CrossCountryUK @ScotRail @LumoTravel
π The Kyle Line, one of Scotland's most scenic railways, is set for vital upgrades this autumn. From 19 Oct-10 Nov, we'll renew 4.5 miles of track between Achnashellach & Strathcarron. π€οΈ @transcotland | @ScotRail | @HighlandCouncil networkrailmediacentre.co.uk/news/gbp-4-5m-β¦

Engineers are attending Carnoustie station where weβre dealing with a cable hanging down from a bridge over the railway, obstructing the track. Trains are running at a slower speed through the area until this has been dealt with. @ScotRail @LNER @CrossCountryUK

An update from our team at Achanalt this morning on the Kyle line. Floodwater has subsided, but the debris itβs brought with it is blocking the track and the station area. Weβll work to clear this as soon as we can. @ScotRail
