The earlier train seems to stop for 10 minutes just before Inverkeithing to let the faster train overtake it. there’s one train from KDY at something like 22.12 which stops at each station, then a Virgin(?) about 10 minutes later which only stops at Inverkeithing.

It isn't too pleasant! Whenever I go home, I go via Haymarket which means I’m unfortunate and have to get on the edinburgh-fife train at haymarket. It isn’t too pleasant!

Until now I've never believed that I was the *only* person to realise that the commuter belt has moved out from Aberdour to Kirkcaldy in the time I've lived here (4 years) My favourite two examples of the ridiculousness of the train service is a) the 7.13-ish Virgin Trains service into Edinburgh, which is made up of two trains - one of which is kept locked and b) the early and extremely busy Dundee/Aberdeen trains (2 carriages) which arrive just after the 5, 6, 7, 8 carriage Fife Outer Circle trains. It's madness. I’ve been whinging about the train service between Fife and Edinburgh for years now.
