Getting there, getting back:

The number 45 or number 46 bus runs from Linlithgow Cross (turn left out of Linlithgow station, the bus stop is located in the High Street) to Bo’ness bus station (opposite the railway line, and a few minutes walk from the railway station). Times from Linlithgow Cross are at xx.15 and xx.45 past the hour, with a 20 minute journey time, so you need to be on the 09.15 from Linlithgow Cross at the latest to connect with the 10.00 departure.
