Storm Darragh brings travel disruption to Scotland

Storm Darragh has brought damage and disruption to some parts of Scotland, with an amber warning for high winds and yellow warnings for wind and rain.

Scotrail said services on the Stranraer line between Girvan and Ayr were disrupted by a tree on the tracks, with Network Rail sending a chainsaw team to the site.

There have been snow gate closures on the A93 and A939 roads, while the southbound A1 was restricted at Eyemouth due to a fallen tree.

CalMac cancelled many routes off Scotland's west coast on Saturday, external, and warned of possible disruptions to the remaining sailings.

Ferry operators Stena Line and P&O also cancelled their crossings between Cairnryan and Northern Ireland on Saturday in light of the forecast.

Yellow warnings for wind and rain are also in place across much of Scotland throughout the weekend.
