Engineering works are scheduled to take place between Glasgow Central and Carlisle on the weekend of 23-24 April. Buses will be operating on this part of the rail network to replace trains, as well as some trains operating on an alternative slower route.
Since COVID-19, there's been a change in advance rail booking availability, with timetables and tickets now being released much closer to travel dates. Please note: timetables and tickets are not due to be released until at least mid-March.

During Annual Conference, other essential rail engineering works are taking place locally, with no trains running on the line from Glasgow Central to Anderston and Exhibition Centre. Delegates should plan their journey accordingly and allow more time to travel between the city centre and the SEC (see further travel information below).
Rail replacement buses run from Exhibition Centre to Central Station. There is signing and staffing to advise passengers at these stations. There is also an information desk at the SEC, with fully briefed staff and digital signs.
Glasgow Taxis will also be providing marshals on 27 April from 3-5pm to help with departures.
