Train services disrupted after tractor strikes railway bridge

Train services between Glasgow and South Lanarkshire have been disrupted after a tractor struck a railway bridge.

Network Rail engineers inspected a bridge in Wishaw following the incident on Monday morning.

Passengers have been warned that services between Glasgow Central and Lanark may be cancelled, delayed or revised as a result.

The company said West Coast Main Line services are running as normal.

In an update to passengers, Network Rail said: “We’ve inspected the bridge for damage, and its safe for trains to restart through the area.

“We’re now working with ScotRail to get services back on time again ASAP.

“Thanks for your patience if you’ve been delayed.”
