Is there really a safety issue
If you remember a couple of years ago the Great Western HST that collided with a tree, then that should answer the part of the statement above.
Speaking as a driver who works in Inverness there was rumours of winds reaching 161mph in the highlands.The A9 trunk road was closed for several hours with fallen trees and power lines as was the railway.
I am not for one minute praising Scotrail,I for one think the way they treated people yesterday was appalling(I don't work gor Scotrail) but I also can't condem them as the weather conditions were way out of the ordinary and they did do the best they could.
So yes there is a deffinate safety concern.
