Leven railway station (Fife)

Leven railway station is a station that serves as the terminus of the Levenmouth rail link, connecting the town of Leven, Fife with the Fife Circle Line.

In December 2020 four options were proposed for the new station site. In June 2021 the station site, near the town's swimming pool, was announced.

The station was opened on 29 May 2024, with scheduled passenger services starting on 2 June 2024. Direct journeys to Edinburgh Waverley take just over an hour.

Historically, there was a station at Leven between 1854 and 1969 on the North British Railway, in a different location.

Site and facilities
The station is situated underneath Bawbee Bridge and has a 205 m long island platform. The section of Bawbee Bridge which spans the railway was found to be in poor condition and needed to be replaced: construction of the platforms could only start once this was completed.

The station has step-free access with a ramp down from the end of the buffers. The car park has 133 spaces including 12 for electric cars. Cycle storage and a Scotrail welfare facility are provided near the waiting shelters.

Services
All services at Leven are operated by ScotRail. The typical service on all days of the week is one train per hour to and from Edinburgh Waverley via Kirkcaldy.
