| Good evening, Scotrail has announced that more than 90% of their normal services will be running from August 3. They have stated that all routes will have normal early morning, late night and peak services running again. Physical distancing will still have to be maintained, even during peak hours with some seats remaining empty. Scotrail are restarting more services ahead of the schools reopening on August 11. They are not yet able to put on 100% of services as due to physical distancing it is impossible for two people to sit in the driver’s cab.
