There are two platforms, linked by a covered footbridge, which is accessible by either stairs or a lift.

The railway through Edinburgh Park station was electrified (using overhead wires at 25 kV AC) in October 2010 as part of the Airdrie-Bathgate Rail Link project.

The tram stop is adjacent to the southern exit of the railway station.

Edinburgh to Dunblane, Glasgow Queen Street, Milngavie and Helensburgh Central services call at the station, providing eight trains an hour to Edinburgh city centre, two to Stirling, two to Glasgow Queen Street High Level via Falkirk Grahamston & Cumbernauld, and four to Glasgow Queen Street Low Level via Bathgate.

[5] Trains on the E&GR main line to Queen Street H.L via Falkirk High do not stop here and passengers wishing to travel to stations between Falkirk & Queen St H.L must change at Polmont during evenings and Sundays.
