Operator ScotRail is introducing a raft of timetable changes from Sunday, 2 June.
The changes improve connections from the major cities of Edinburgh and Glasgow to several areas of Scotland, including Fife, Inverclyde and Clackmannanshire.
The new timetable was developed following a public consultation.
One of the most significant changes sees the reopening of stations at Leven and Cameron Bridge, both of which closed in 1969.
When the new timetable comes into force, it will provide an extra 3,000 seats per day between Fife and Edinburgh in each direction, while also offering reduced journey times.
In Inverclyde, passengers will benefit from improved rail-ferry connectivity at Gourock, as well as a more regular service between Glasgow and Wemyss Bay thanks to an extra 30 services per day on weekdays.
Other changes to trains serving Glasgow include more frequent evening services from Scotland's largest city to Alloa, Neilston, Newton and stations on the Cathcart Circle.
Moreover, capacity will be strengthened on certain journeys between North Berwick and Edinburgh, and between Inverness and Edinburgh.
The reintroduction of services to Leven and Cameron Bridge is part of the Levenmouth Rail Link, a scheme which has involved laying 19 kilometres of railway track in Fife.
The project was approved in 2019, and once the line becomes operational on 2nd June, it will connect towns in the Levenmouth conurbation with the Fife Circle Line, allowing passengers to travel directly to Edinburgh Waverley.

“This is a fantastic timetable change for our customers, delivering improvements across the country, including almost 100 additional services each day and thousands of extra seats.
“Public consultations play an active part in helping to decide what our future timetables look like, and we continue to do everything we can to look at ways of making rail an even more attractive mode of transport.
“It is an exciting time for Scotland's Railway with the historic reopening of Levenmouth, passenger numbers continuing to grow, and significant investment in recruitment across the business.
“Everyone at ScotRail is working hard to deliver a safe, reliable, and sustainable rail service that provides a positive experience for our customers.”

I’m pleased to see that my local service from Glasgow is returning to half hourly in the evenings.
