DMU Operations: Scottish Region
Edinburgh - Stirling via Alloa
DMUs had been introduced to the services of this 39¾ mile journey by the summer 1960 timetable.
By the late 1960s this was a Stirling - Dunfermline Lower service, connecting at Dunfermline with services to Edinburgh.
Passenger services ended on the Stirling - Dunfermline section on 7 October 1968. The Edinburgh - Stirling journey could still be made by the route via Falkirk.
