TRAIN services between Glasgow and Inverclyde will be disrupted tomorrow due to strike action by signalling staff.
Some trains will be completely withdrawn, while others will operate a reduced service as Network Rail workers take industrial action over how staff are promoted.
Cathcart Circle services will not operate on Christmas Eve and services via Maxwell Park will have just one train per hour. Services via Queen's Park will operate three times an hour. A spokeswoman for ScotRail said: "This action is beyond the control of ScotRail and we apologise for any inconvenience caused. We have published a summary on our website and put up posters at stations. Everyone should check their journey before they set out, in particular noting their last train home."
Gourock services will also be hit in the strike, with trains reduced from three per hour to two. These will depart Gourock at six and 36 minutes past the hour and leave Glasgow Central at five and 35 minutes past the hour. Barrhead, Paisley Canal and Whifflet services will be cut from two to one per hour. Services from Barrhead will depart at 27 minutes past the hour and leave Glasgow Central at 57 minutes past.
Trains will depart Paisley Canal at 30 minutes past and Glasgow Central at eight minutes past. Whifflet services will leave at 36 minutes past and depart Glasgow Central at 46 minutes past.
ScotRail said extra carriages will be added to trains where possible.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
