ScotRail late night services between Edinburgh and Glasgow added in major update

ScotRail has issued a major update and added "extra late-night services" this weekend as part of "improvements" to its temporary timetable.

The rail service previously announced that it was introducing a new timetable on Monday, cutting about 700 services.

These cuts occurred because ScotRail and train drivers union Aslef remain deadlocked in talks over pay.

However, in response to public outcry about the slashed number of late-night services, the operator has introduced a number of new journeys on Friday and Saturday.

These include a 10.45pm service from Glasgow Queen St to Edinburgh, and a 11.46pm service from Edinburgh to Glasgow Queen St on Friday.

On Saturday, among the new journeys are a 10.45pm Edinburgh to Glasgow Queen St service and an 11.45pm journey from Glasgow Queen St to Edinburgh.

Taking to Twitter, ScotRail wrote: "We said we’d review the temporary timetable to make improvements if we can. We have and we’re pleased to be putting on extra late-night services 27 & 28 May.

"Our customer information channels – like our app - have been updated."

It follows the news that rail passengers had hit out as a temporary ScotRail timetable, which cut about 700 services, came into effect across Scotland on Monday.

More information about the new timetable can be found on the ScotRail website here.
