What we do

We’re a new organisation with a new approach. Join a team that’s reimagining the future of rail travel in Britain.
A better way to travel
East Coast Trains Limited (ECTL), is an Open Access train company who will be providing regular, cost effective 100% electric train travel between London and Edinburgh as an alternative to flying that is cheaper, kinder to the environment and just as time effective as taking a domestic flight.
Fresh, digital approach
We will start our services from October 2021 and it is intended to create a service that is digital in both internal operation and in customer experience so far as is possible, using a team of dedicated like-minded people working together in a very different way to other Train Operating Companies.
