Scotrail customers have been urged to prepare for 'significant' disruption when Network Rail strike action takes place both later this month and in August.
Just five Scotrail routes will operate on Wednesday 27 July, Thursday 18 August and Saturday 20 August - with final services departing 'well before 18.30', with customers warned to 'plan ahead to ensure they know when their last train will run'.
Although the Network Rail dispute does not involve ScotRail staff, the strike action will have a major knock-on effect on the train operator’s ability to provide services as the RMT planned action will involve Network Rail staff in Scotland.
