The 23:40 train from Glasgow to Hamilton on Saturday witnessed a shocking musical performance when passenger William Boyle decided to sing a classic Puccini aria.
Boyle's a cappella version of 'Nessun Dorma', made famous by Luciano Pavarotti, made the train fall silent. It then prompted a huge standing ovation and rapturous applause.

The video has since notched up thousands of views.
Boyle appeared on Scottish television yesterday to talk about the performance, commenting: "I didn't expect it to happen… I've never really been that popular before."

Asked whether he'd had any classical training or experience, he simply answered, "I just learn off my iPod."
Boyle's Facebook profile contains videos of him singing the same aria at a local talent contest, where he as apparently made it through to the semi-finals.
