ScotRail has told customers to expect travel disruption until this evening as a weather warning is issued for strong winds in the west coast.
Heavy rain overnight led to a number of delays and revisions on morning train services.
The Met Office has now issued a yellow weather warning for strong southwesterly winds which could cause further disruption.
The warning covers areas including Fort William, Tobermory and Oban, and is in effect between 1pm and 7pm.
A yellow warning for rain affecting large parts of Central Scotland and as north as Mallaig and the southern Highlands was in place until 8am.
Sepa has also issued flood alerts across Argyll and Bute, Skye and Lochaber, Findhorn, Nairn and Speyside.
A flood warning is in place at Sluggan to Dulnain Bridge and Strath Oykel where river levels are expected to continue to rise on Wednesday morning.
Train disruption
This has led to several services operating between the Highlands and Central Belt to be “cancelled, delayed or revised” according to ScotRail.
The train operator has had to reduce train speeds through certain areas due to the impact of heavy rain, which could impact journeys until 7pm this evening.
Some routes have already been amended with early morning services between Inverness and Glasgow Queens Street terminating at Perth either way.
Heavy rain is also impacting the Inverness to Kyle of Lochalsh line which will terminate at Dingwall either way.
