Glasgow Central station will remain closed on Tuesday, 10 March, following the significant fire in a building next to the station on Union Street, with disruption expected to last several for several days.
As a result, no ScotRail services will operate to or from Glasgow Central High Level on Tuesday. Services which normally operate via Glasgow Central Low Level will continue to run but will not call at the low-level station. Customers are advised to travel to and from Argyle Street or Anderston station.
Customers are also being advised to check their journey before travelling, as many routes across the west of Scotland are suspended or operating with alterations due to the fire.
ScotRail is continuing to keep customers updated – including information on impacted routes and details of how to claim refunds on unused tickets – on the ScotRail website, app, and through its social media channels.
The emergency services and Network Rail are assessing the damage caused by the fire near the station, and ScotRail will provide further updates on its services as soon as more information becomes available.
David Ross, ScotRail Chief Operating Officer, said:
“Glasgow Central will remain closed on Tuesday while the impact of the fire in the building next to the station is assessed and we expect disruption to continue for several days.
“We’d like to thank our colleagues in the fire and emergency services who worked incredibly hard to tackle the blaze and prevent it from spreading to the station itself.
“We know this closure will cause significant disruption for our customers, and we’re very sorry for the impact this will have on their journeys.
“Our teams are working hard to keep people moving where possible, and we’d encourage customers to check their journey before travelling using the ScotRail app or website.”
