Trains return to Glasgow Central High Level, but disruption continues
Trains are departing from Glasgow Central High Level again today, ten days after a major fire had gutted a building next to the station. The Low Level platforms were reopened to passengers a week ago, but High Level has remained closed until now while extensive safety checks were carried out. National Rail says platforms 7 to 15 at Central have reopened, but some services remain disrupted.

Delay Repay system to be simplified under GBRThe government has announced changes to the Delay Repay system when Great British Railways is in charge. The news follows a controversial decision to restrict refunds for unused tickets to no later than 23.59 on the day before travel. However, claims for delays will be possible for the first time using the retailer who sold the tickets in the first place.
