Edinburgh Park railway station is a railway station in the west of Edinburgh serving the Edinburgh Park business park and the Hermiston Gait shopping centre. The station opened in December 2003 and is the first intermediate station between Haymarket and Linlithgow since 1951.
There are two platforms, linked by a covered footbridge, which is accessible by either stairs or a lift. Tickets are available from one of the two ticket machines.
Edinburgh Park station is on the edge of South Gyle. It should not be confused with South Gyle railway station which is a mile/two kilometres away.
[edit] Services
Edinburgh to Bathgate and Dunblane services call at the station, providing four trains an hour to Edinburgh city centre and two to Brunstane and Newcraighall. The possibility of some Edinburgh to Glasgow express services calling at Edinburgh Park station is currently being investigated.
