ScotRail have been forced to cancel train journeys as Storm Eunice hits Scotland.

Whilst parts of England and Wales are feeling gale force winds of 60 miles per hour and a red warning, Scotland have been warned of heavy snow and ice and temperatures plummet.

Snow fell across the central belt through the night and into the morning which has left some ScotRail train routes from Edinburgh suspended.

Taking to Twitter this morning, ScotRail announced that some tracks were covered in black ice and staff were working to grit them.

They have urged customers to check their journeys before travelling.

ScotRail wrote at around 7am on Friday: "#StormEunice is coming. We’re preparing for the forecast snow and cold weather today and into Friday.

"We don’t expect #StormEunice to have the same impact here as #StormDudley.
