    The North Clyde Line is a route going from Helensburgh in the west to Edinburgh in the east. The route includes the Balloch, Milngavie (pronounced Mull-guy) and Springburn. The route also splits in two between Dalmuir and Hyndland with one way via Clydebank and the other via Westerton with the Milngavie branch. If this route was added most likely it would be a portion of it from Helensburgh to Airdrie or Bathgate with the branch lines or it could be from Helensburgh to Edinburgh with no branch lines or the entirety.

    Service patterns include:

    2tph from Helensburgh to Edinburgh
    2tph from Balloch to Airdrie
    The Argyle Line also provides services from Glasgow Queen Street low level to Milngavie, Dalmuir via Clydebank and Dalmuir via Westerton.

    The Class 334 operates services to Edinburgh and a bunch of North Clyde Line services. The Class 320 and 318 cannot operate past Airdrie because of the lack of CCTV and platform mirrors whereas the 334 has CCTV.

    At Edinburgh layering can include the class 801 and class 385.
