Commuters are facing travel chaos this morning with a signalling fault on the Edinburgh to Glasgow line having seen multiple trains delayed or cancelled.

Trains between Glasgow and Edinburgh face delays, diversions or cancellations after the signalling fault was discovered between Edinburgh Park and Linlithgow.

Trains up to and including the 11:07 between Edinburgh and Helensburgh Central are currently listed as starting from Bathgate. They will no longer call at Edinburgh, Haymarket, Edinburgh Park, Uphall and Livingston North.

ScotRail said: “Because of a fault with the signalling system between Edinburgh Park and Linlithgow disruption is expected to last until around 11:00 today (21 November).

“How does this affect your journey? Train services between Edinburgh and Helensburgh Central via Airdrie may be cancelled, delayed or terminated at and started back from Bathgate.”

Similarly, there were delays and cancellations on the Edinburgh to Glasgow, via Falkirk High route. It now appears that the issue has been cleared and services are returning to normal.

ScotRail said: “Train services between Edinburgh and Glasgow Queen Street via Falkirk High are returning to normal but some services have been delayed.”

Travellers have been offered a replacement shuttle bus service between Bathgate and Edinburgh Park.

ScotRail said: “We're currently unable to operate services between Bathgate and Edinburgh. A replacement bus shuttle service is in place between Bathgate and Edinburgh Park for onward travel on Edinburgh Trams. Customers can also travel on all ScotRail services that call at Edinburgh Park.”
