There are five electrified railway lines linking Glasgow with Edinburgh, the two largest cities in Scotland. These are, from north to south:
Historically, the first line between Glasgow and Edinburgh was the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway, equivalent to today's Glasgow to Edinburgh via Falkirk Line.
