Our version of #TheErasTour poster has become an unexpected icon of the tour's Scottish leg. Never in our Wildest Dreams did we expect the amount of love that it's getting.

Here's some things you might not have realised about it... #EdinburghTStheErasTour Taylor Swift's Debut era is represented by this diesel locomotive (a Class 47, if that means anything to you).

ScotRail's own debut was over 40 years ago in 1983. If you went to a gig in Edinburgh in that era (say, in 1989), there's a good chance one of these took you there.

ℹ️👇 #StormBabet update:

The Aberdeen – Elgin line has just reopened, and we expect the Dundee – Aberdeen line to be reopened for the start of service tomorrow, but please check the app for the latest service information. /1 After several days of extreme rainfall and high winds, almost all routes are open, and normal service will resume, but Network Rail advise that some early morning trains in Fife will be disrupted.

Customers are asked to check their journey before travelling by downloading the ScotRail app or visiting scotrail.co.uk. 1/4 We are reliant on drivers working overtime or on their rest days because of delays to training new drivers caused by the pandemic. Unfortunately, since the drivers’ union ASLEF announced its intention to recommend a ballot for strike action 2/4

20:36 Edinburgh to North Berwick terminated at Wallyford.

NEW: One of our trains is stuck at Airbles due to slippery rails preventing it from moving away. Until we can get it moving, no trains are able to run between Airbles and Motherwell.

In the meantime, you can use our Glasgow Central - Lanark trains which avoid Airbles. ^Angus UPDATE: The driver's taken another run at it and managed to get the train through the slippy section, so we can now run trains through Airbles again.

@NetworkRailScot are sending one of their staff down to check the track and clean the rails if required. ^Angus

We're very excited to unveil the first of our five Active Travel Carriages. These each have space for up to 20 bikes of all shapes and sizes - including tandems, and e-bikes.

They'll enter service on the #WestHighlandLine once we're able to safely complete staff training. The finishing touches to the first carriage are currently being made at @BrodieEng's workshops in Kilmarnock.

As well as fitting the racks for bikes and heavy luggage, they've also installed WiFi, plug sockets, and upgraded the toilet.

NEW: Due to heavy flooding of the railway at Ardgay, services between Inverness and Wick have been suspended until water levels drop. UPDATE: Engineers are on-site monitoring the situation.

NEW: We've had reports of flooding between Saltcoats and Ardrossan. For safety reasons, trains for Largs & Ardrossan will only run as far as Kilwinning until the water level drops to a more suitable level. TICKET ACCEPTANCE: We have arranged for your rail tickets to be accepted on local bus routes with @StagecoachWScot between Largs and Kilwinning in both directions.
