LNER Managing Director David Horne said the new Azumas will officially go into service on the Leeds-London King’s Cross route on 15 May, with Hull the next destination to be transformed with the new trains.

“I am delighted to confirm that our Hull customers will be among the first to experience our new Azuma trains, which will transform the travel experience on the route” Mr Horne said.

“This is the first time in 30 years we have seen a new fleet of trains introduced on our route, and we took the decision very early on that we wanted Hull to be one of the first places to benefit.

“I look forward to giving our Hull customers an excellent experience every time they travel with us.”
