ScotRail train drivers accept a 4.5% pay increase retroactive to April, ending a pay dispute.

This decision comes just as peak fares are set to return on September 27, following a failed pilot to eliminate them. The fare hike has drawn criticism from commuters and the Scottish Greens, who argue it could deter passengers and fail to improve rail usage.
