ScotRail is to be nationalised from April, but more work needs to be done to make the operator a "customer-focused passenger service," the Scottish Government has announced.
Opposition politicians and trade unions have been invited to take part in a "national conversation" about the future of Scotland's rail services as they return to public ownership.
Transport minister, Jenny Gilruth, confirmed on Wednesday that ScotRail would be taken over by the public sector from April 1, admitting "much work still needs to be done".
