Torrential rain causes travel chaos for commuters in Glasgow

Torrential rain has caused travel chaos in Glasgow with rush-hour commuters left stranded. 

Trains are suspended due to flooding in the Crossmyloof area in the city's southside.

Those travelling to East Kilbride, Barrhead and Kilmarnock have been told trains are suspended until further notice.

ScotRail made the decision on safety grounds. 

A statement read: "We have received reports of flooding in the Crossmyloof area. For safety reasons trains to and from East Kilbride, Barrhead and Kilmarnock will be suspended until further notice."

The downpour comes after the city has experienced a heatwave for days with temperatures soaring into the high 20s.
