About your departure station
Opened in 1869 by the Caledonian Railway, Addiewell Station served local shale oil works and mining communities.
Its fortunes declined with the industry but revived as a commuter stop for West Lothian.
The current simple station, rebuilt in the 1980s, provides essential links for this regenerated area, connecting former mining villages to Edinburgh while preserving the railway's industrial heritage in Scotland's shale oil region.
