Scotrail trains through Glasgow and Edinburgh cancelled sparking rail chaos

ScotRail trains on busy Glasgow and Edinburgh lines have been cancelled this morning due to a signalling fault.

A signalling fault on busy Glasgow and Edinburgh ScotRail train lines has caused commuter chaos with cancellations and delays.


Trains heading to Airdrie via the Glasgow Queen Street low level platforms have been getting cancelled and delayed this morning due to the glitch.


The route, which also runs through Edinburgh Waverley, is used by thousands of passengers each day heading to both cities.


The line also runs out through stops such as Partick, Hyndland, Anniesland before heading out to Dumbarton, Helensburgh Central, Balloch, Garscadden and Milngavie.

The fault comes during rush hour as people attempt to make their work on time, although it isn't known if it will affect people coming in from the west.


Another signal fault has also been reported in the Newbridge area which is affecting trains from Edinburgh to Queen Street High and Low Levels via Falkirk High.

Passengers have been advised that trains may be cancelled, delayed or revised.

A spokesperson for ScotRail said: "We have had reports of a signalling fault at Queen Street Low Level affecting trains towards Airdrie. Train services running through this station will be cancelled, delayed or revised.


"We have a signalling fault in the Newbridge area which is affecting train from Edinburgh to Queen Street High and Low Levels. Train services between Edinburgh and Glasgow Queen Street via Falkirk High may be cancelled, delayed or revised."
