Falkirk is a large town in the Central Lowlands of Scotland, historically within the county of Stirlingshire. Falkirk lies in the Forth Valley, 23.3 miles north-west of Edinburgh and 20.5 miles north-east of Glasgow.
The town is at the junction of the Forth and Clyde and Union Canals, a location which proved key to its growth as a centre of heavy industry during the Industrial Revolution. In the 18th and 19th centuries Falkirk was at the centre of the iron and steel industry, underpinned by the Carron Company in nearby Carron. The company was responsible for making carronades for the Royal Navy and later manufactured pillar boxes. In the last 50 years heavy industry has waned, and the economy relies increasingly on retail and tourism. Despite this, Falkirk remains the home of many international companies like Alexander Dennis, the largest bus production company in the United Kingdom.
Falkirk has a long association with the publishing industry. The company now known as Johnston Press was established in the town in 1846. The company, now based in Edinburgh, produces the Falkirk Herald, the largest selling weekly newspaper in Scotland.
Attractions in and around Falkirk include the Falkirk Wheel, The Helix (home to The Kelpies), Callendar House and Park and remnants of the Antonine Wall. In a 2011 poll conducted by STV, it was voted as Scotland's most beautiful town, ahead of Perth and Stirling in 2nd and 3rd place respectively.
Falkirk is located in an area of undulating topography between the Slamannan Plateau and the upper reaches of the Firth of Forth. The area to the north of Falkirk is part of the floodplain of the River Carron. Two tributaries of the River Carron - the East Burn and the West Burn flow through the town and form part of its natural drainage system. Falkirk sits at between 50 metres (164 ft) and 125 metres (410 ft) above sea level.
The Falkirk Area occupies a central position in Scotland, with direct access from the key north-south and east-west motorway networks; the M9 from the north and east, and the M876 from the west. Falkirk has main rail and canal routes within easy reach from Edinburgh and Glasgow and is central to access to both Glasgow and Edinburgh airports. Falkirk is well situated both for access by rail from England and for access to other parts of Scotland excluding Fife, which has no direct rail link to Falkirk other than morning and evening commuter services from Kirkcaldy to Glasgow. Falkirk has two railway stations; Falkirk High and Falkirk Grahamston. Falkirk High is on the main Glasgow-Edinburgh line, with connections to either city running on a 15-minute frequency. Falkirk Grahamston lies on the Edinburgh to Dunblane Line.
The Falkirk Wheel, the only rotary canal connector in the world, is located within Falkirk. The attraction was completed in 2002 and it connects the Forth and Clyde Canal to the Union Canal. In Falkirk High Street lies the Falkirk Steeple, the current building was built in 1814 and is protected as a category A listed building. A stylised image of the steeple appears on the crest of Falkirk Football Club. It is widely regarded as the centre point of the town.

TS 2014 RailWorks - Edinburgh / Falkirk High - Class 170 First ScotRail - By JMCV 2013
* RailWorks, later simply Train Simulator, is a train simulation game developed by Ltd. It is the official successor to Rail Simulator, and was released online on 12 June 2009 and in stores on 3 July 2009.
Compared to Rail Simulator, RailWorks contained new rolling stock, tools that previously had to be downloaded separately, graphical advancements such as modification of the existing content, bug fixes, backwards compatibility and the ability to trade elements from the virtual world with other users online. The first release of RailWorks contained all of the five real-world routes of the original European and North American releases of Rail Simulator, and added three new fictional routes: a large UK goods yard, a route set in the Alpine region and a route based around Denver, Colorado.
It is a Steamworks title, which means it uses and requires Steam to activate and to deliver core game updates. Steam is also used to deliver additional routes and locomotives in the form of DLC. The core game has received several free updates since release, including major new versions RailWorks 2: Train Simulator in 2010, RailWorks 3: Train Simulator 2012 in 2011, Train Simulator 2013 in 2012 and Train Simulator 2014 in 2013.
* Edinburgh Waverley railway station is the main railway station in the Scottish capital Edinburgh (there is another within the City Centre called Haymarket). Ticketing generally regards Waverley and Haymarket as interchangeable (subject to operator validity); the choice of name for the new 'Edinburgh Park' station to the west of Haymarket has made the precise definition important, though Edinburgh also has four other Stations within the City - which are all west of Haymarket- South Gyle, Slateford, Kingsknowe & Wester Hailes. Covering an area of over 25 acres (101,000 m²) in the centre of the city, it is the second-largest main line railway station in the United Kingdom in terms of area, the largest being London Waterloo; and is both a terminal station and a through station, in contrast to the major London stations.
* Falkirk High railway station is one of the railway stations serving the town of Falkirk in Scotland. It is on the Glasgow to Edinburgh via Falkirk Line and situated on the southern edge of the town, close to the Union Canal.
* The station was opened as Falkirk with the Edinburgh and Glasgow Railway on 21 February 1842. In 1903, the station was renamed as Falkirk High recognising it being one of several stations in the town and its location above the town.
* The Class 170 Turbostar is a British diesel multiple-unit (DMU) train built by Bombardier Transportation (and previously ADtranz) at its Derby Litchurch Lane Works. Introduced after privatisation, these trains have operated regional as well as long-distance
services, and to a lesser extent suburban services. 122 units have been built.
* ScotRail is the main train operating company in Scotland, operated by First. It operates most commuter and long-distance services within the country as well as some cross-border services to England, including the Caledonian Sleeper. It originally traded as
First ScotRail before being rebranded as ScotRail in September 2008.
* First ScotRail est la marque commerciale sous laquelle le groupe First, spécialisé dans le transport public, exploite les services voyageurs du réseau ferré écossais ainsi que les trains de nuit Caledonian Sleeper qui relient Londres à l'Écosse. Il a son siège à
Aberdeen en Écosse.
Le 17 octobre 2004, la concession ScotRail, précédemment détenue par le groupe National Express a été réattribuée au groupe First, qui l'a aussitôt rebaptisée First ScotRail. C'est la première fois depuis la privatisation de British Rail qu'une concession
voyageurs était renégociée. Les concessions sont attribuées par un organisme régulateur étatique, la Strategic Rail Authority.
