Flooding causes major disruption on trains in and out of Glasgow Queen Street

Trains cannot service the stretch of track between Craigendoran and Cardross due to heavy rainfall.

This means services between Glasgow and Helensburgh Central, and services between Edinburgh and Helensburgh Central, are being subject to delays or cancellations.

The disruption is expected to last until around 9pm.

NEW: Reports of flooding in the Craigendoran area are coming into our Integrated Control team. For safety reasons, we need to keep services clear of there, until @NetworkRailScot’s team inspect the track.
