Train operator East Coast has today announced a number of amendments to the planned introduction of a new timetable from May 2011.
Under the amendments, most of the planned new London Kings Cross Lincoln services will now operate between Kings Cross and Newark, with one through train per day in each direction between Lincoln and Kings Cross. As a consequence, it will not be necessary to introduce an additional fleet of trains (five Adelante Class 180s), and the daily service to and from Lincoln/Kings Cross will be resourced from within the existing East Coast fleet.
East Coast will discuss the future of the Adelante Class 180s with the Department for Transport.
