RAIL passengers misery has been laid bare after ScotRail has received record fines for failing to meet required standards for the running of the nations trains and stations. The firm has clocked up £3 million in financial penalties over the first nine months of this financial year for its failings, having posted a £3.5m after-tax loss for 2016. That is double the financial penalties imposed on them for the whole of the previous year. The ScotRail report card shows Abellio which runs the franchise failed to reach the required standards of service to the public in 26 benchmarking areas out of 34.
