Our Integrated Control team are keeping a close eye on conditions at #Saltcoats sea wall, with high tide imminent. They've deployed a watchman to the area. Here's a video of the current conditions there, with seawater starting to come over the wall. #StormGareth pic.twitter.com/FlMkeqcPQt

And here's a view from trackside. You can see the overhead wires tripping out as the train passes through. Services are now suspended between Kilwinning & Ardrossan/Largs. #StormGareth ^CT pic.twitter.com/TkhZYNjyz7
