Between Glasgow Queen Street and Oban
Description
Lines have reopened following an earlier fault on a train between Tyndrum Lower and Oban. Trains between these stations are returning to normal but some services may still be cancelled.
Disruption is expected until 10:00.
Customer advice:
Two rail replacement buses have been requested to run between Dalmally and Oban. One bus has been confirmed to run from Dalmally at approximately 09:20, this will be operated by Temporal Travel. This bus will then run from Oban to Glasgow Queen Street in place of the cancelled 08:56 train from Oban to Glasgow Queen Street, however this will run later than the scheduled train departure time.
You may use also your ticket at no extra cost on Citylink buses between Glasgow and Oban. Please show your valid ticket or Smart Card to the driver when boarding the bus.
If you're travelling to or from Helensburgh Upper, you may travel on services running to and from Helensburgh Central at no extra cost as it is a short distance between the two stations.
If you have had to drive to another station your ticket will be valid to collect your car on your return journey. Speak to a member of staff to validate your ticket.
