The following day changes to Midland Bluebird services through the Cumbernauld area, will see a new X35 service from Falkirk to Glasgow, hourly,  via Kilsyth & Croy, whilst existing Service X37, also between Falkirk & Glasgow will reduce to hourly. Meanwhile, X36 from Stirling-Glasgow will be re routed via North Carbrain, and not service Cumbernauld Town Centre. There's also a late departure at 2330 from Glasgow back to Stirling.
