Rail services between Fife and Edinburgh are being disrupted today due to a signalling fault.

The fault affects all services heading to Haymarket, where the problem is located, and is expected to continue to cause issues until this afternoon.

There have already been cancellations to some Fife services this morning, with all trains on the route subject to delay or revision.

ScotRail say Network Rail are already working on the problem and hope to have it fixed this afternoon.

A ScotRail spokesperson said: “We are sorry to customers for the disruption to their journey, which has been caused by a signalling fault.

“Network Rail engineers are working hard to fix the fault and we are doing everything we can to keep people moving.

“Replacement buses have been put in place at stations throughout the affected routes and we have also secured ticket acceptance wherever possible, including Edinburgh trams and Lothian buses.
