Services

In 2010 it was served, Monday to Saturday, by one service each hour from Glasgow Central to Edinburgh Waverley. One train a day from Edinburgh terminates at {{Stnlnk|Motherwell}} and one starts from there. An additional hourly 'semi fast' service also now (May 2016) calls, giving the station a frequency of two trains per hour between Edinburgh and Glasgow. This latter service only calls at {{rws|Haymarket}} en route to Edinburgh and at {{rws|West Calder}}, {{rws|Shotts}} & {{rws|Bellshill}} when heading to Glasgow.

There is a limited Sunday service at this station to Edinburgh and Glasgow (six trains each way per day).^[2]

The staple passenger traction on services using this station is the Class 156 and Class 158 DMU.
