Train services between Glasgow Central and Lanark are suspended due to severe weather, according to Scotrail. Disruptions are expected to continue until the end of today, Sunday, 25 October. Passengers are advised to check for updates before traveling.
Scotrail announced disruption on the Glasgow Central to Newton lines due to trackworks on August 16, 2026. All trains on the affected routes, including the Cathcart Circle, are cancelled. Passengers can use alternate services at nearby stations or take McGill’s buses for connections. Further details are on the McGill’s website.
Starting 1 July 2026, ScotRail will impose a £10 minimum fare for passengers boarding without a valid ticket, despite having had the chance to purchase one beforehand. Exemptions exist for specific ticket types, aiming to reduce fare evasion. Travelers are encouraged to understand the new rules and exemptions before journeying.
On Hogmanay, trains will operate normally until approximately 7pm on December 31. No train services will be available on New Year’s Day. A revised schedule will commence on January 2. Further details, including the last train times for New Year’s Eve, can be found on the ScotRail website.
ScotRail reminds passengers of its altered Christmas and New Year timetable, with earlier final trains on Christmas Eve and Hogmanay. No services will run on Christmas Day and New Year’s Day. Passengers should plan ahead due to essential engineering work, while extra services and increased seating will be available.
Starting September 1, 2025, Scotrail passengers will benefit from the elimination of peak fares. Travelers will pay the same fare regardless of the time or day of travel. This change aims to simplify pricing and enhance accessibility for all rail users in Scotland.
The Scottish Government has announced the permanent elimination of peak rail fares in Scotland, effective September 1. First Minister John Swinney stated that this decision follows a successful improvement in Scotland’s financial situation and responds to demands from commuters, climate activists, and the business sector.

As of late afternoon, services between Larkhall and Balloch, Milngavie and Motherwell via Blantyre, and Glasgow Central to Newton are subject to delays and alterations.
