Hi all, anyone have information on the trains return journey? Just checked RTT & it's saying It's been cancelled at Crianlarich.

This was because of a derailed wagon on a ballast train between Crianlarich and Ardlui this morning. It was only a very minor derailment and the wagon has been rerailed but further work is needed to make the track fit for traffic, so the line isn't open yet. I understand the passengers are going forward on coaches and the stock is returning to Fort William.

Hi I was on the Sprinter service from Oban last night an it hit a tree between Crianlarich and Ardlui. The train staff did manage to get the tree free from the train but I wonder if it damaged the track and caused the derailment

The London sleeper left FW on time at 1900 and seems to have passed Crianlarich ok, now as far as Garelochead .

Nope, nothing to do with it.
