Tyne Tees Hitachi

Cracks on Hitachi's Class 800 trains discovered in May 2021 were caused by several factors, an investigation by the Office of Rail and Road (ORR) has found.

Operator LNER has reintroduced services and says it expects to operate a robust weekday timetable as trains are safely returned into service. 

LNER is running a reduced service on the East Coast Main Line, which runs between London King's Cross and Edinburgh via Peterborough, York and Newcastle.
