Rail services across Ayrshire have been disrupted due to a building fire close to the track.

The fire broke out at a local coachworks in Gatehead, East Ayrshire, at around 8pm on Sunday.

Locals were evacuated due to a stockpile of gas canisters on the site.

No services will run between Kilmarnock and Ayr on Monday morning due to concerns over the stability of the building's structure.

A ScotRail statement said: "Trains are currently unable to operate between Ayr and Kilmarnock due to emergency services checking the stability of a building that was ablaze within the railway boundary.

"We've organised limited replacement road transport, which will call at intermittent stations."

ScotRail advised that services between Glasgow Central and Kilmarnock and Glasgow Central and Ayr were still running as scheduled.
