Dalmeny?

 

[777142]

Yes!

• Served by class 158s and 170s
• Services terminate at one of Cowdenbeath, Leven, Edinburgh, Perth (e.g. 1L93 SO at 17:56), Glenrothes with Thornton (e.g. 2K11 SSuX at 17:32), Dundee (2L69 SuO at 22:45) or Inverkeithing (2K19 SuO at 23:53).
• Dalmeny UPL is timetabled for 1H84 unadvertised express DEE-EDB, which seems to run frequently on Fridays but I don't exactly know what it's for
• Dalmeny DPL is timetabled for 2K51 and 2K85 ordinary passenger services EDB-LEV on Sundays only
• Haymarket-Dalmeny electrification is reportedly planned to be finished by March next year
