ScotRail is to reopen platform two at Troon station on Monday, 26 July, following a fire which devastated station buildings last weekend.

Network Rail has fully assessed the damage to the buildings, platform canopies, overhead power cables and other infrastructure.

Special supports have been designed and installed on platform two which enabled track-level repairs to be carried out, and similar props on platform one are supporting the beams over the tracks which overhead line equipment is attached to. New overhead power cables have also been installed.
