In general terms, this area is bounded by Kincardine, Saline, Kelty, Cardenden, Aberdour and the Forth Coast between Aberdour and Kincardine. The main urban centres are Dunfermline, Rosyth, Inverkeithing, Dalgety Bay, Cowdenbeath, Lochgelly, Cardenden, Kelty and Ballingry. Services may operate wholly within the South Fife area but are not limited by its boundaries and may operate further afield.
