TRAVELLERS in the north-east of Scotland have faced disruption this afternoon after cattle invaded the line near Laurencekirk.
ScotRail say a service heading to London hit one of the animals near the Aberdeenshire village and that the line towards Dundee from Aberdeen is blocked.
Work is ongoing to reopen the line with replacement buses also in operation.
The delays are also affecting Virgin Trains’ East Coast services.
A spokesperson said: “There are currently delays to our services between Dundee and Aberdeen. We’re sorry for the inconvenience, anyone travelling with us this evening is advised to check our website or Twitter page for the latest updates.”
