Part of a railway route in the west of Scotland will remain closed until 22 August after severe flooding swept away part of the track. The decision was taken to keep the line closed between Ardlui and Crianlarich following detailed geotechnical and aerial surveys of the damage. However, services will be reintroduced between Crianlarich and Oban from Monday.
