North Berwick railway station is a railway station serving the seaside town of North Berwick in East Lothian, Scotland. It is the terminus on the Edinburgh to North Berwick Line 36 km (22¼ miles) east of Edinburgh Waverley.
The original station complex featured two platforms, however this was demolished and only a single platform now remains. There have been many attempts at closure.
[edit] Services
Train services are provided by First ScotRail; services include an off-peak half hourly service (more regular peak times and hourly evenings and Sundays) to Edinburgh Waverley and the peak-hour service to Glasgow Central via Motherwell & Carstairs.
At one point during the ScotRail tenure as franchisee, Class 90 locomotives with Mark 3 coaches including a DVT were used on services to this station.
