A points failure between Carluke and Lanark / Carstairs means some lines are blocked between these stations. As a result, trains may be cancelled or delayed by up to 30 minutes.

Disruption is expected until 08:00.

Advice for Avanti West Coast customers:

If your train is cancelled, your ticket is valid on one of the two Avanti West Coast services immediately before your booked train, or one of the two immediately after.

Advice for ScotRail customers:

Rail replacement transport has been requested to run between Motherwell and Lanark. You will be updated once this has been confirmed.

You may use your ticket on the following services at no extra cost:

  • Alternate ScotRail services via any reasonable route
  • JMB Travel route 41 between Motherwell and Lanark

Check before you travel:

You can check your journey using the National Rail Enquiries real-time Journey Planner.

For helpful advice if you need to travel on a rail replacement service, including accessibility and bicycle information, please use our Rail Replacement Services page.

You can find the pick-up and set-down location of rail replacement services by checking station signage or by searching for your station on our Find a Station page.

Please be advised that replacement vehicles may be busier than usual, and you should allow extra time for your journey.

Compensation:

You may be entitled to compensation if you experience a delay in completing your journey today. Please keep your train ticket and make a note of your journey, as both will be required to support any claim.
