#ScotRail has launched a UK-first satellite-based Wi-Fi system on #trains in the Scottish Highlands, improving connectivity for passengers. Six Class 158 trains, running from Inverness to Wick, Thurso, Kyle of #Lochalsh, and #Aberdeen, will trial the technology for six months. Developed with Clarus Networks, the system connects to a Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite network, addressing long-standing connectivity issues. Supported by the Scottish Government, Highlands and Islands Enterprise, and the Scottish Futures Trust, the project offers benefits such as improved Wi-Fi, Wi-Fi calling, GPS tracking, and on-board CCTV access. If successful, the technology could be rolled out across the Class 158 fleet and influence future train procurements. The initiative aims to boost rural digital connectivity, supporting economic resilience and growth in remote areas, in line with the #Scottish Government’s focus on improving digital services for rural communities.

“The Plock of Kyle (Am Ploc in Gaelic) is the beautiful promontory west of Kyle of Lochalsh. The road to the Skye Bridge crosses its southern shores, but away from the road the Plock is a wonderful place to explore, with wild flower meadows, native woodland, a series of hidden rocky coves and a fine viewpoint.”
The storm last night forced me to stay in Kyle. I’m heading home soon by public service ‘bus.
