The report was commissioned by the Secretary of State for Transport after the Stonehaven tragedy in August 2020. Three people died when a passenger train hit a landslip and derailed while travelling through bad weather near Carmont, Aberdeenshire.
The report includes more than 50 recommendations to safeguard the country’s rail network from extreme weather and climate change. It in no way pre-empts the outcome of formal independent investigations.
