Network Rail and ScotRail will focus their efforts on keeping routes used by the highest number of people running if severe weather hits this winter.

The companies said cross-border links would also be a top priority during the worst conditions.

The plan is included in a £2m package of measures announced by ScotRail.

The UK's first "power shower" systems aim to remove snow from engines and coaches, and a new design of warmed plastic tunnels will de-ice the trains.
