ScotRail announced on social media that they had received reports of trespassers on the line between Dalreoch and Cardross.
They announced that train services between Edinburgh and Helensburgh Central via Airdrie would be delayed or terminated and started back from Dumbarton Central.
One social media user in the area reported that police, coastguard and ambulance personnel wee in attendance at the railway near Craigend Nursery, to the east of Cardross.
It was later revealed that a ScotRail driver had stopped his train to help after spotting two people in the Firth of Clyde near the village, and that police, ambulance, coastguard and RNLI personnel had been called to the scene.
