There’s the possibility of some relief tonight for rail travellers. A series of planned strikes due to begin tomorrow have been suspended – though the decision has come too late to resume all services.

Strikes planned for every weekend through December are still going ahead, though, which one business says will be “disastrous” for hospitality.
STV News has been finding out how the strikes could impact trade and travellers in the run up to Christmas.
