- Enjoy the view from the driver's seat as we head out of Edinburgh, cross the iconic Forth Bridge and head along the Fife Coast to Glenrothes before heading inland and back to Edinburgh via Dunfermline. Normally this journey takes around two hours, but you can do it today in only five minutes!
ScotRail are one of the few operators that upload cab ride videos. They're pretty cool!
I’m from Glasgow and I always love travelling on the Fife Circle line when travelling to see family over in the East Neuk. Looking forward to the day when the train approaches Thornton junction turning right on route to the newly reopened Levenmouth line!
Only a few months now.
Great video Scotrail I do love trains
Back when the fife Circle line really was a circle line
I can see that it’s a really popular way to travel !!! Must be at least 6 people get on the whole journey! But looking on the bright side at least they are guaranteed a seat !

Fascinating - I must try it again, played at 0.5 speed. Is this ScotRail's response to London to Brighton in 5 minutes, FILMED rather a long while ago ? It's a pity the Station Name Captions are SO prominent as to spoil one's VIEW of the stations themselves.
Nice vid is this a 158
Perhaps the Fife Circle Lines in future could be electrified from Edinburgh Waverley to Dunfermline Town, Dunfermline Queen Margaret and Markinch via Burntisland or Cowdenbeath. Or is that not possible because of the infrastructure of the Forth Bridge and it’s impossible to electrify the Fife Circle Lines.

@Joseph Stalin. I don't always put links on videos. But if someone is confused then I do.
Nice video! I’m I right in saying, that the Fife Circle Line is supposed to being electrified in the not so distant future?
Is this on a class 158?
Yes. Unless they put a 156 on the line.
@@ScottishTransportHub very rare for a 156 on fife circle.
It could’ve been a 158 or 170 turbostar
@@brawlstarsmomentsandvideos6530 I think the camera angle would be a bit different on a 170
@@DriverKing yes, and you can see the front door of the 158
Glenrothes with Thornton is not known as that when talking to transport staff, to give that name confuses them! To train staff it's simply Glenrothes, to bus staff it's simply Thornton ! British fragmented transport culture for you
It's the bus folks who are right. Glenrothes really has no station, it's purported and named station is 3 miles away in village Thornton. The next station on the continuing East Coast line, Markinch, serves a village that runs into the edge of Glenrothes + is actually closer to the town than the station named for the town is
Ironic how this is coming to TSW
I have only seen this in train simulator,
I can relate
It's just far too stupidly fast. Why no just show a regular speed video?
That would be way too long for most people. ^Paul
