The route to success
When it comes to delivering quality train travel in the North and Scotland, we mean business. We’re investing £500 million to spruce up our existing trains and buy 44 brand new ones, plus we’re adding free Wi-Fi, onboard entertainment and better catering than ever. Isn’t it time you got on board?
Choose train travel for your next business trip and you don’t have to get slowed down by traffic jams or airport queues. Instead, you can check emails or hit that deadline at 100 mph, before arriving in the heart of the city on time.
Book your train travel in advance and you could save over 50%. Trains are available to book up to 24 weeks before travel, so you can grab a seat as soon as your meeting is confirmed.
New trains will be in service from Summer 2018 and a full refurbishment of our trains has begun, with larger seats and power sockets throughout.
We run direct trains between major cities including Liverpool, Manchester, Leeds, Newcastle Sheffield and York, with connections to regional airports too. We also have multiple services between Manchester and Edinburgh/ Glasgow every weekday.

Forget crummy coffee and stale biscuits, we’ve got proper Lavazza coffee and fresh pastries on board. Travel in First Class and you’ll enjoy a selection of complimentary refreshments on us.
Train travel is the environmentally-friendly alternative to other forms of transport by a long mile:
Our electric trains use 60% less carbon per person from Manchester to Scotland, versus driving
All of our fleet use at least 45% less carbon versus travelling by car (our carbon per passenger km is 44.63gCO2e/km versus 87gCO2e/passenger km per average car)
