The following routes are currently operating services: Edinburgh – Aberdeen Edinburgh – Leven Edinburgh – Bathgate Edinburgh – Queen Street (via Falkirk High) Glasgow – Paisley Gilmour Street Glasgow - Kilmarnock Perth – Inverness Edinburgh – Inverness Edinburgh – Glenrothes (via Cowdenbeath) Edinburgh – North Berwick Edinburgh – Tweedbank Perth – Aberdeen Inverness – Kyle Inverness – Wick Aberdeen – Inverness Crianlarich – Oban Fort William – Crianlarich Fort William – Mallaig Network Rail hopes to reopen more routes this evening and first thing tomorrow morning after further repair works have been carried out, but there will be disruption into Monday. Anyone who is unable to use their tickets, or has made alternative arrangements, is entitled to a full refund on their unused train tickets, with no admin charge. Alternatively, tickets already purchased can be used up to and including Friday, 31 January 2025. Customers should visit ScotRail.co.uk for details of how to claim a refund.

Met Office have issued an updated Red Weather Warning for dangerous winds during Storm Eowyn from 10am-5pm tomorrow covering West Lothian and the central belt. We will provide updates throughout today on what this could mean for council services on Friday.

A rare red weather warning has been issued by @metoffice for Friday. @PoliceScotland is urging people not to travel in affected areas. #StormÉowyn is expected to cause danger to life and significant disruption. Our resilience operation has been activated. Watch for more.

Red weather warning: important notice Following the red weather warning, non-urgent outpatient appointments and routine hospital admissions scheduled for Friday 24th January are being cancelled. (1/4)

Due to a combination of tidal surges and strong winds from Storm Eowyn we are expecting wave and spray overtopping around coastal areas and in particular around the Ayrshire coastline on Friday and in to Saturday. Wave overtopping and debris may lead to localised flooding and disruption on coastal roads and transport networks. Stay away from coastal roads, paths and piers when high tides and strong winds are likely. Regional Flood Alerts and local Flood Warnings are being issued. Stay up to date for your area at: sepa.scot/flooding

Now that a rare RED weather warning has been issued, I ask everyone to follow the advice that will be set out. It is vital we all do this to keep safe.

⛔️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.
