Police have released a CCTV image of a man they want to speak to after a woman was “verbally abused” at a train station.
The 37-year-old was accosted as she stood on the platform at Falkirk High shortly after 5pm on October 12.
British Transport Police (BTP) are trying to trace the man in the picture because they believe he “may be able to assist with enquiries”.
It is thought he got on a train from Falkirk High to Glasgow at 5.26pm but got off at Bishopbriggs.
A spokesman for BTP said: “A 37-year-old woman was verbally abused at Falkirk High station on Monday October 12 at around 5.15pm.
“The man in the photograph is described as being about 5ft 10in in height, of slim build with black hair and a sleeve tattoo on his left arm.
“At the time of the incident, he was wearing a black t-shirt with KARL in white lettering, blue jeans and white trainers.
“He boarded the 17:26 Falkirk High to Glasgow Queen Street service but is believed to have alighted from the train before Glasgow and may reside in Bishopbriggs.”

Information can also be given anonymously to the independent charity Crimestoppers by calling 0800 555 111.
