Date: 11/09/2018
A painstaking mission aimed at re-opening parts of Ayr railway station is to get underway.
Safety teams will work 24 hours a day to try and get the hub moving again.
Work, which begins this Saturday, is expected to last until mid-October.
Council bosses hope their move will reduce the extended exclusion zone which has paralysed the town^s train station.
Services to Glasgow Central are currently restricted in size with all six carriage trains halting at Prestwick Town.
All trains south of Ayr are cancelled.
Contractors are now set to move in with the aim of reinstating those lost services.
