DOZENS of fuming passengers were left queuing around the block after multiple services were cancelled or severely disrupted.
Passengers have been stuck in long queues at Glasgow Central as they waited to board – only to be told their service had been cancelled.
Disruption has affected Avanti West Coast and any services with trains down south from Glasgow axed or several delayed.
Queues snaked around the outside of the station as many travellers awaited an update from the railway provider Avanti.
Avanti said the disruptions are due to damage to the overhead electric wires between Lockerbie and Motherwell meaning fewer trains are able to run on the line.
The train operator added: “Train services running through these stations may be cancelled, delayed, or diverted. Please check your journey before you travel.”
Trains running from 8am this morning were delayed for over five hours with multiple services to Carlisle, Newcastle, Birmingham, Manchester and London cancelled.
Disruptions are expected to last until at least 6pm.
But those currently trying to travel down south were left fuming by the delays.
One tweeted: “Why are there no staff at Glasgow Central informing everyone about whats going on with the delays.
“The queue for the train to London euston is out the station entrance.”
Another wrote: “The 9.21am Manchester Piccadilly service to Glasgow Central has terminated at Carstairs.
“We’ve been told coaches are coming to take us to Glasgow but not when they’ll arrive. Can you update please? There’s no food facilities at the station and no other travel options.”
ScotRail are currently conveying passengers between Glasgow Queen Street and Edinburgh in both directions until further notice.
LNER are allowing passengers headed to and from London’s King Cross to travel via Edinburgh.
Cross Country trains are conveying passengers between Edinburgh and Birmingham, while Northern Trains are transporting travellers between Carlisle and Newcastle.
Those heading to Manchester from Glasgow can use TransPennine Express between Edinburgh and Manchester Piccadilly in both directions until further notice.
