Some services operated by CrossCountry travel over the Shotts Line. Mostly these are empty coaching stock moves to/from Glasgow for driver route retention or passenger services diverted from their usual route via Carstairs due to engineering works or service disruption, but there is currently one service per week which is booked to travel over the line on Saturdays only (2105 Glasgow Central - Edinburgh). This service runs non-stop from Glasgow Central to Haymarket and does not serve any station on the Shotts Line.
