Satellite Internet Trials on Scotland's Remote Rails | Glasgow News

from Glasgow News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Passengers on Scotland’s remote West Highland Line are getting a game-changing upgrade: satellite broadband, thanks to a £400K UK government-backed trial called SODOR. Designed to tackle spotty cell service, this tech-powered initiative—led by CGI and backed by the UK Space Agency—aims to connect travelers, improve rail operations, and support isolated communities. If successful, it could become the new standard for remote rail routes, proving how space tech can solve everyday challenges right here on Earth.
