Overview

The normal platform usage in this station is as follows:

• Platform 0, seldom used, we understand it serves about three trains per day during peak times;
• Platform 1 serves trains to Edinburgh Waverley, Brunstane and Newcraighall;
• Platform 2 serves the Fife Circle, plus trains to Aberdeen and Inverness via Kirkcaldy;
• Platform 3 serves Edinburgh Waverley and stations to North Berwick;
• Platform 4 serves trains to Bathgate, Dunblane, Inverness via Stirling plus Glasgow Central and Queen Street.

There is stairs-only access to the ticket office from each platform, though there is a step-free route via the car park from platforms 0 - 1. The doors at this entrance are remotely operated by staff, so you should press the intercom button, about a metre to your right of the doors. Details of this route were not available to us at the time of our survey owing to the building work in progress.

There is tactile paving along the edge of platforms 0 - 1, but not on the other platforms.

At the time of our survey, the rear of the westbound trains (front of eastbound) was beside the foot of the steps from the bridge, so we suggest you needn't attempt to go behind the steps. If you do get off beyond the steps, note that you can walk underneath them, be careful.

Except for platform 0, the doors will open on your left as you face the front of the train.
