Nearly 30 trains between Arbroath, Dundee, Perth and Glasgow were cancelled on Tuesday due to heavy rain.

Services between Tayside and the central belt faced disruption because of speed restrictions on the line.

It came after the Met Office issued a yellow warning for rain on Tuesday morning, affecting western parts of the country.

On Tuesday, Phil Campbell, ScotRail’s head of customer operations, said: “Due to the very heavy rain across parts of the country, ScotRail train services have been subject to delays and cancellations.”

He advised passengers to check the ScotRail website before travelling.

Services between Glasgow Queen Street and Aberdeen faced delays earlier in the day but returned to normal during the afternoon.

On Wednesday morning, the operator confirmed services between Glasgow and Tayside were running – but subject to delays until around 10am because of the speed restrictions.
