Train services run by Avanti West Coast will resume this week following a fire near Glasgow Central railway station.
The firm said it will resume its full service from Wednesday, March 25, when the station’s high level platforms are expected to reopen.
They have been closed since March 8 following a major fire in a nearby street.
The intercity operator will operate two trains per hour to and from Glasgow Central – resuming its full service at the station.
Avanti West Coast’s Ticket Office and First Class Lounge will also reopen for customers on Wednesday.
A small exclusion zone is still in place at the high-level station and the firm said there may be some changes to boarding services.
Chris Liptrot, Operations Director at Avanti West Coast, said: “We’re pleased to be resuming our full service at Glasgow Central and want to thank our customers for their patience and understanding over the last two weeks.
Until Wednesday, Avanti West Coast will operate one train per hour from Glasgow Central. It will also operate one train per hour between London Euston and Motherwell/Edinburgh where onward connections to Glasgow Central low-level are available with ScotRail.
TransPennine Express stopped operating between Carlisle and Glasgow Central after the fire and said at the time it would only resume once the station reopened in full.
Its cancellation of services impacted on southbound services from Carlisle, with trains cancelled or delayed.
It has not confirmed yet whether it will start operating on Wednesday.
