EGIP (still to be completed with Almond chord plus new station (Winchburgh (and Kirkliston?)) plus a station on former airport terminal at Turnhouse would be sensible here (site also used for small private planes & the air freight terminal, & next to long stay car parks fro EDI - with shuttle bus service to main passenger terminal (shuttle bus also collided with tram & derailed tram a few years ago)
EGIP delivered all trains as 100mph electric all with bike spaces 2.4 m long (easily fit in 4 bikes or tandems etc At peak times 12 trains/hr via 5 routes & fastest services every 15 min via FKK use GLQ-HYM to avoid delay inbound - typically 35 minutes. 4tph via Bathgate 2 tph via Shotts 1 tph via Carstairs. Change at Falkirk G for via Cumbernauld
Generally via FKK using Class 385 (4/8 coach) Via Airdrie Class 334 (3/6 coach), via Shotts/Carstairs mostly Class 380
All with 2.4m bike spaces
Express coaches run 24/7 via M8, carry bikes but not easy to load, hint that Ember may start on this route as well as Citylink & Flixbus
