Find out what this means for you.

Our new timetable is now operational, delivering faster journeys, more seats, and more services for our customers. Keep informed of any changes on your preferred route by checking your new timetable online or viewing your journey planner.

The introduction of both high-speed trains and brand-new Class 385 electric trains, as well as major infrastructure improvements like the electrification of the Stirling-Dunblane-Alloa route, have all enabled the delivery of the enhanced timetable.

This major timetable improvement is an important step in our journey towards building the best railway Scotland has ever had, with further timetable improvements to come in 2019.
