This was because of a derailed wagon on a ballast train between Crianlarich and Ardlui this morning. It was only a very minor derailment and the wagon has been rerailed but further work is needed to make the track fit for traffic, so the line isn't open yet. I understand the passengers are going forward on coaches and the stock is returning to Fort William.

Hi I was on the Sprinter service from Oban last night an it hit a tree between Crianlarich and Ardlui. The train staff did manage to get the tree free from the train but I wonder if it damaged the track and caused the derailment

Nope, nothing to do with it.
