The Largs line will fully reopen for passengers on Saturday (March 27) following the successful completion of work to repair landslip-damaged tracks near Fairlie.

Drone images have been released showing how the West Coast main line is being secured from landslips in Warwickshire.

Engineers will soon be working overnight at locations between Kennishead and Crossmyloof to install foundations for electrification masts.

Work is now underway to build the new Reston station in the Scottish Borders.

A giant crane will be used to upgrade bridges around Warrington Bank Quay station this Easter to make future rail journeys more reliable for passengers and freight.
