ScotRail’s services between Inverness and Elgin hit by major disruption after train fault
Rail travellers between Inverness and Elgin are facing chaos today through cancelled services.
A fault on the ScotRail train serving the route in both directions has led to major disruption with the cancellation of five services.
ScotRail has apologised to customers and says it has arranged for those affected to travel on Stagecoach North buses between Inverness and Elgin at no extra cost.
Those wishing to use the alternative service should show a valid ticket or Smartcard to the driver on request.
Services hit were:
The 11.44 and 13:30 departures from Inverness to Elgin calling at Inverness Airport, Nairn and Forres;
and the 10:51, 12:36 and 14:25 departures from Elgin to Inverness, calling at the same stations.
The rail operator expects its late afternoon and evening services on the route to run as normal.
Other services between Inverness and Aberdeen are not affected.
