answer text <p>From May 2018 the journey time increases by 8 minutes due to 3 additional station stops going into the timetable. This is as a result of a major re-cast by the current TransPennine franchisee of the North TransPennine services from May 2018. No further change to journey time is currently planned beyond that point.</p><p> </p> more like this

answer text <p>On the East Coast Mainline, Intercity Express Trains (IETs) are capable of achieving 125mph in electric traction and in diesel mode a balancing speed (determined by a number of variables such as track gradient and passenger load) of approximately 115mph under test conditions. The average speed of the IETs will be dependent on the route, stopping pattern and dwell times at stations; we therefore do not hold this information. With respect to Hull Trains, it is not possible to comment on the performance of any trains not procured by the Department.</p> more like this
