Further Notes

Closure date speculative based on timetable searches and assumption that the service ceased with the outbreak of WW2. B1273 Aug 1939 is the last timetable to show a service over this section of line until the introduction of the Fife Circular service from 15/05/1989. 

Confirmation or otherwise of this would be greatly appreciated.

*One train a week only - 9 20 aft SO Edinburgh (Waverley) - Dunfermline (Upper) via Cardenden. (Train ran WO but terminated at Thornton Junction.)

RO - Mon 15/05/1989 - BLN 606 p81/89.
