ScotRail confirmed on Friday morning that services on the route via Carstairs would be cancelled due to engineering works.

Work is taking place via Kirknewton and Carstairs, closing all lines, including between Waverley and Glasgow Central.

Replacement buses are available from a West Lothian station to most of the stops on the route.
