Northern England Railways

Northern England's railways were the cradle of the steam age. From the Stockton & Darlington's first passenger run in 1825 to today's high-speed Azumas, the region's lines tell the story of British rail.

25 stations

Manchester Piccadilly and Leeds are the busy hearts of the modern network, with Northern, TransPennine Express, Avanti, LNER and CrossCountry services criss-crossing the region. York's Victorian station and the magnificent National Railway Museum next door make it the spiritual home of British railways.

Newcastle's High Level Bridge and Tyne crossings are engineering marvels, while heritage lines like the North Yorkshire Moors Railway, Keighley & Worth Valley Railway, and Settle–Carlisle Line offer some of the most spectacular train rides in Britain.
