The Very First LNER Azuma In Service!

Tuesday 14th May 2019, and LNER ran the first of its Hitachi #Azuma trains for a Press trip between London Kings Cross and Peterbrough, and back again.

We were delighted to be invited on board, as they launched their new train and we got to explore first class, standard class, the kitchen areas, and talk to the brilliant staff on board.

As from 15th May 2019, these trains are now being rolled out on the LNER network to Leeds, Hull and beyond ...

Thanks to LNER for inviting us along, especially Kate and Richard for helping us out on the day.
