ScotRail timetable changes unveiled for Fife routes

Changes to December timetables for rail services in Fife have been announced.

They come after late-evening services on routes in the Kingdom returned to normal following the completion of Network Rail's engineering works.

ScotRail has said it will add one extra carriage to the 6:00am Perth to Edinburgh service, giving it three in total, along with timetable adjustments designed to improve reliability in the region. The new schedules start from Sunday, December 13.

Mark Ilderton, ScotRail service delivery director, said: “Making sure our timetable meets the needs of customers and communities across Scotland is an important part of delivering a reliable railway.

“While most services will remain unchanged, we're making a number of targeted improvements to provide better connections, more convenient travel options, and help trains run more reliably.

“From additional late-night services in the Highlands to improved peak-time connections in the central belt, these changes are designed to make everyday journeys easier for our customers.

“Some train times and stopping patterns will change, so we'd encourage everyone to check their journey in advance and familiarise themselves with the new timetable before travelling.”
