ScotRail have announced that members of the Royal Scottish National Orchestra (RSNO) have played a special concert at Haymarket.

Passengers were treated to the orchestral performance this week. As part of the concert, conductor Caroline MacFarlane swapped the ticket machine for a baton and lead the orchestra.

ScotRail has supported the RSNO since 2008. It is the official travel partner for the orchestra.

The RSNO has created an exclusive Spotify playlist for ScotRail customers to enjoy on their journey. The playlist can be found at by clicking here.

Bill Chandler, RSNO Director of Artistic Planning and Engagement, said:

“ScotRail has been a valuable partner for the RSNO for the past ten years, helping our musicians travel the length and breadth of the country in fulfilling our role as a national performing arts organisation.

“Over the next two weeks we will be relying on them again to help as we travel over a thousand miles across the country to reach our audiences in Glasgow, Edinburgh, Aberdeen, and Dundee. We would like to thank ScotRail and its customers with this gesture of goodwill.”

James Ledgerwood, ScotRail Head of Economic & Community Development, said:

“We're proud to be the official travel partner of the Royal Scottish National Orchestra.

“Our collaboration allows for such wonderful music to travel the length and breadth of Scotland.”
