Train services to Ardrossan Harbour are set to benefit from more seats in the run-up to Christmas.
ScotRail is adding extra carriages to the busiest services on key routes on Friday nights and during weekends until Christmas Day.
But the train operator warned that services are still expected to be busy and is advising customers to buy their tickets before they board – either on the ScotRail app, website, or at a ScotRail ticket office.
As with previous years, no trains will run on Christmas Day or New Year’s Day.
ScotRail Head of Customer Operations Phil Campbell said: “The lead up to Christmas is always a busy time of year, and that’s why we’ll be adding more seats on key routes to help everyone get where they want to be.
“Whether customers are heading to the Christmas markets, a night out, or just picking up presents, we hope they have a great time.
“But trains will be busier than usual, so we encourage people to plan their journey in advance and make sure they have their ticket before boarding.”
Details of the changes can be found on the ScotRail website at www.scotrail.co.uk/christmas
