Wet and windy conditions are causing travel disruption across Scotland as Storm Chandra sweeps across the UK.
Several Met Office weather warnings are in place north of the border throughout Tuesday, warning of the potential for strong winds, rain and snow in southern, central and northern areas.
Rail operator ScotRail said speed restrictions are in place on some routes which will extend journey times, but disruption caused by a fallen tree which blocked the line between Arbroath and Montrose in Angus has now eased.
Ferry operator CalMac has disruption on the vast majority of its routes, with sailings subject to delay or cancellation at short-notice.
Stena Line has cancelled numerous sailings, including between Belfast in Northern Ireland and Cairnryan in Dumfries and Galloway.
Domestic flights have been cancelled on several routes, including some serving Edinburgh and Glasgow, while regional airline Loganair cancelled at least 12 flights on Tuesday, including between Glasgow and Islay, Campbeltown and Tiree.
