ScotRail has announced some changes to their timetable starting this month which is set to 'strengthen' services.
Adjustments to the Edinburgh Waverley to Helensburgh Central line will begin from May 17 in order to better facilitate leisure travel for passengers at the weekend.
These main changes to these services are that 1854 Helensburgh Central to Edinburgh Waverley will call additionally at Coatdyke.
In addition, the 1707 Edinburgh Waverley to Helensburgh Central service will continue to call additionally at Kilpatrick and Bowling, Monday to Saturday.
On Friday and Saturday evenings, the 2159 Edinburgh Waverley to Helensburgh Central service and the 2221 Edinburgh Waverley to Helensburgh Central service will now be scheduled to operate with six carriages, instead of the current three carriages.
The rail operator says these are set to 'strengthen' services operating on the line for passengers.
Mark Ilderton, ScotRail service delivery director, said: “We are introducing a number of timetable changes from Sunday, May 17, the majority of which are on Saturdays and Sundays to meet the growing demand for leisure travel.
“These additional services will provide customers with more choice and flexibility, helping more people travel by rail for leisure, events, and days out.
“There are a small number of changes for operational requirements and planned engineering works so the Borders route can be electrified, making rail travel more sustainable.
“Customers should check their regular journeys before travelling, as some train times may have changed.”
Customers are urged to check their journeys on the ScotRail website, mobile app, or through social media channels as train times might have changed.
