ScotRail has apologised after two services on the new Borders Railway were cancelled due to overcrowding.
Passenger numbers on the Tweedbank to Edinburgh line have increased during the October holidays, according to the rail franchise.
The trains were cancelled on Wednesday and replaced by a bus service.
Earlier this month the new line was hailed a "soaraway success", after more than 125,000 journeys were made during its first month.
A spokeswoman for ScotRail said extra carriages have been added to trains during the school holidays "where possible".
She added: "As a result of large passenger numbers, some trains were delayed and this unfortunately led to the cancellation of two services.
"Bus replacements were sourced and called at all stations, and our ticket acceptance arrangement with Lothian Buses was in place.
"We're really sorry for the inconvenience this has caused our passengers, and thank them for their patience as we worked to get services back to normal."
Before the £294m line opened, forecasters predicted it would carry almost 650,000 passengers a year.
Shortly after it was opened by the Queen in September, ScotRail added extra carriages following passenger complaints about overcrowding.
