Services

It is currently served, Mondays to Saturdays, by one ScotRail service each hour from Glasgow Central to Edinburgh Waverley.[2] Two trains a day from Edinburgh terminate at Template:Rws (one also starts back from there in the early morning) and there is one through train in each direction between Glasgow and Template:Rws that calls (peak periods only - runs via Template:Rws, with the evening train extended to Template:Rws).

There is a two-hourly Sunday service at this station to Edinburgh and through to Glasgow since the December 2012 timetable change - prior to this, trains had only run as far as West Calder.
