ScotRail is encouraging music fans to plan ahead as extra seats are laid on to help people travel to and from BBC Radio 2 in the Park in Stirling.
Thousands of people are expected to travel to the city for the three-day event from Friday, 11 September until Sunday, 13 September.
ScotRail is adding additional carriages to key services following the end of the event on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, providing more seats for customers travelling from Stirling towards Glasgow Queen Street, Alloa, Perth, Dunblane, Dundee, and Inverness.
Customers travelling between Edinburgh and Stirling should be aware that planned engineering works will impact journeys on Saturday, 12 September and Sunday, 13 September.
There are no direct trains between Edinburgh and Stirling on those days, and customers should travel via Croy or Glasgow Queen Street, changing trains to complete their journey.
Customers are encouraged to plan their journeys in advance and allow extra time for travel.
Queuing systems may be in place at key stations before and after the event to ensure customers can board trains safely.
Phil Campbell, ScotRail Customer Operations Director, said: “BBC Radio 2 in the Park is set to bring thousands of music fans to Stirling, and we’re doing what we can to help people travel to and from the event by train.
“We’ll be adding extra carriages to key services after the event on all three nights, providing more seats for customers heading home towards destinations including Glasgow, Alloa, Perth, Dunblane, Dundee, and Inverness.
“We’re asking customers to plan ahead, buy their ticket before travelling, and allow extra time for their journey.
“Customers travelling between Edinburgh and Stirling on Saturday and Sunday should also be aware of planned engineering works, and they will need to change trains at either Croy or Glasgow Queen Street.
“Our staff will be on hand to help, and queuing systems may be in place at key stations to help everyone travel as safely and smoothly as possible.”
