ScotRail - Strike implications

ScotRail have issued the following information that may be helpful to anyone planning a train journey in the next couple of weeks.

"Due to strike action across Great Britain planned by RMT members of Network Rail, ScotRail services will be significantly disrupted from 21 June. 

When are the strikes happening?
The RMT announced the strikes will take place on 21, 23, and 25 June. The days following the strike action will also see disruption in the mornings caused by the re-opening of signal boxes at different times across the country.

What does this mean for ScotRail services?

On strike days - 21, 23, and 25 June - we will only be able to operate the following services between 0730 and 1830:

Edinburgh – Glasgow via Falkirk High: two trains per hour
Edinburgh – Bathgate: two trains per hour
Glasgow – Hamilton/Larkhall: two trains per hour
Glasgow – Lanark: two trains per hour
Edinburgh – Glasgow via Shotts: one train per hour

Final services on these routes will depart well before 18.30, so customers should check before travelling. Timetables for next week are available to download on our website. The ScotRail App and Journey Planner will also be updated by Sunday, 19 June to show updated train times for the week ahead.

In the meantime, please keep checking our website, and follow us on Twitter for updates.

Already got a trip booked?
If you have already purchased your rail ticket, you can seek a refund with no additional admin fee. If you are able to use an alternative service, your ticket will be valid either the day before or the day after your planned journey.

To find more about the dispute, and how to get a refund, please visit our website."
