The station is managed byScotRail and is on theFife Circle Line,18+1⁄2 miles (29.8 km) north ofEdinburgh Waverley. The station takes its name from the nearbyQueen Margaret Hospital. It is the longest railway station name in Scotland.
The station was opened on 26 January 2000 byRailtrack and the formerNational Express franchisee,ScotRail.

Passengers can only purchase tickets using a machine at the station. There is no ticket office or newsagents and only a small covered waiting area, although there is a fairly large car park with 93 spaces and two electric vehicle charging points.
There is a half-hourly service to/from Edinburgh (southbound) & Cowdenbeath (northbound) with hourly extensions toGlenrothes with Thornton andLeven. On Sundays, an hourly service runs in each direction (to Glenrothes only northbound).[2] A single evening service runs through toPerth all week, though the Sunday service runs earlier than its weekday/Saturday equivalent.
