ScotRail has issued a travel update to Ayrshire commuters after a fire at the abandoned Station Hotel building in Ayr on Sunday.

According to the ScotRail page on journeycheck.com, there was no disruption to trains on any Ayrshire routes at the start of service on Monday.

In December, South Ayrshire councillors voted in favour of demolishing the southern section of the hotel building - where the fire appears to have broken out on Sunday - but they gave the building's absentee owner 18 months to carry out repair work before stepping in to raze it to the ground.
