To celebrate 40 years of the High Speed Train, we organised a charity rail tour to support the Railway Children charity.

More than 500 people joined us on the one-off train from King’s Cross to Edinburgh, giving passengers the chance to visit our Bounds Green and Craigentinny depots. The journey took in different routes across the East Coast Main Line, giving people the opportunity to enjoy routes rarely used by passenger services. The train raised over £50,000 for the Railway Children, a charity which works to support children living on the streets in India, Africa, and the UK.
