In a UK-first for onboard passenger Wi-Fi; ScotRail has introduced new, Starlink-enabled satellite technology across a rural route in the North of Scotland.
The system, which was devised in partnership with Clarus Network, now allows trains throughout rural Scotland to access connections provided by a Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite network.
Thus far, six class 158 trains travelling from Inverness to Wick, Thurso, Kyle Lochalsh, and Aberdeen have been fitted with the equipment, and will be monitored for the next six months as part of a trial for the new technology.
