Two people left a train in Fife and walked down the tracks – sparking railway chaos.
Police were called to Ladybank station just after 8am on Tuesday after reports that the pair were involved in anti-social behaviour.
But before officers arrived, the duo got off the service and walked down the tracks.
It caused disruption to ScotRail services between Perth and Ladybank while police worked to track down the pair.
