A freight train has derailed in the Highlands, blocking the line from Fort William to Glasgow.
The train came off the track between Corrour and Tulloch at about 7pm on Thursday.
ScotRail's Caledonian sleeper service from Fort William to London Euston, which was due to leave at 7.50pm, has been cancelled.
The driver is understood to have been hurt, but an ambulance service spokeswoman said there was no information about his condition.
The sleeper carriages will remain in the station to provide accommodation for passengers who were due to travel.
Trains between Crianlarich and Mallaig are also suspended. It is not known when services will resume.
