Rail strike disruption to continue to hit ScotRail services to Aberdeen and Inverness on Thursday

Strike action on Wednesday will continue to result in cancelled or amended ScotRail services to Aberdeen and Inverness on Thursday.

Although no strikes will be taking place, services across the north and north-east will be affected.

The strike action, while not directly linked to ScotRail, will affect the running of railways as RMT union members strike on Wednesday.

No trains north of the Central Belt are running during the strike.

Staff that operate “safety-critical roles” like maintenance and signalling across the rail network are embroiled in a pay dispute with Network Rail.

Rail lines outside the Central Belt are more reliant on manual signalling and are the reason so many services are unable to run.

What ScotRail services will be affected on Thursday?

  • 14 trains leaving Aberdeen, mainly to Glasgow, Edinburgh and Inverness.
  • The 7am and 7.22am Elgin to Inverness.
  • Eight trains from Inverness due to leave in the morning.
  • The 5.21am Oban to Glasgow Queen Street.
  • The 6:18am Wick to Inverness.

For a full list of cancelled services visit the Scotrail website.
