Network Rail Scotland capital delivery director Kris Kinnear said: “These essential works will help improve the passenger experience while protecting the railway infrastructure for years to come.

“Most of the festive period works are being completed when trains are not running. We are, however, urging passengers – especially those travelling in the east of the country – to plan ahead and check their journey in advance.”

Earlier this month, Network Rail and SPL engineers unveiled crucial feeder station upgrades for Scottish railway.

The upgrades, which are part of a £120m Scottish Government investment, will include the launch of a new modular feeder station and renovation of a key track section cabinet near Glasgow Central station.
