The basic off peak frequency from here (Monday to Sataturday) is half-hourly, eastbound to Glasgow Central and westbound to Greenock Central and Gourock. A few Wemyss Bay trains call in the peaks and also in the evenings (once per hour each way after 18:30, as the Gourock service drops to hourly). On Sundays both Gourock and Wemyss Bay trains call here, giving a half-hourly frequency to/from Glasgow.[3]
