Inverkeithing railway station serves the town of Inverkeithing in Fife, Scotland. The station is managed by ScotRail and is on the Fife Circle Line, 10 miles (16 km) north west of Edinburgh Waverley. The station is popular with commuters travelling to Edinburgh from Fife and beyond, thanks to its location beside the M90 motorway. The station is served by ScotRail, LNER, CrossCountry and Caledonian Sleeper services. South of Inverkeithing the line continues towards Edinburgh via the nearby Forth Bridge, and north of the station, the Fife Circle Line splits in two - the main line continuing along the coast via Aberdour whilst the branch heads inland via Dunfermline.

Background
History
It opened in 1877, at the same time as the tracks of the Dunfermline and Queensferry Railway. In the 1880s it was taken over by the North British Railway, and reopened in 1890 as a more significant double-track station on the approach to the newly built Forth Bridge.
