We recently attended the East Coast Main Line Authorities’ (ECMA) reception at Westminster, meeting with MPs and local councils to discuss investment on the East Coast.

David Horne spoke at the event, highlighting the additional seats we have recently added to our timetable, as well as the expanded timetable delivering new services to destinations such as Bradford, Harrogate and Middlesbrough. Network Rail also outlined their proposition for a programme to improve performance and capacity levels on the East Coast Main Line – implementation of which depends on Network Rail securing commitment to invest an extra £3 billion on the route between now and 2024.
