LNER has announced its new timetable for the East Coast Main Line this December – with thousands more services planned each year in the biggest change to the timetable in more than a decade.
LNER, which is publicly owned by DFTO, calls at more than 50 stations along almost a thousand miles on the East Coast route.
This includes major towns and cities between London, the East Midlands, Yorkshire, the North East of England and Scotland.
The new timetable will reportedly bring more trains, more seats and quicker journeys, offering customers the chance to embrace new routines.
Head of customer experience at LNER, Richard Judge, said: “At LNER, we know how much customers value their routines – from the time they travel to the seat they choose.
“The new timetable, starting on 14th December, marks an exciting step forward, with more trains, more seats, and faster journeys along the East Coast route.
“We’re encouraging everyone to take a moment to check their train times and plan ahead. A small change in routine could lead to a smoother journey – and perhaps even a new favourite seat along the way.”
