Northern Rail, the UK’s largest train operator, is teaming up with Welcome to Yorkshire, to promote everything that is great about Yorkshire in a brand new campaign. 

In one of the biggest advertising opportunities available ten Northern Rail trains will be getting a makeover with new liveries promoting the Welcome to Yorkshire themes: Family, Outdoors, Delicious, Indulgence, Heritage, Artistic, Sport, Events and Festivals and City Life. 

The trains will be a ‘rolling’ promotion travelling across the Northern Rail network, which runs from the Scottish Borders to Nottingham and Stoke, and from the North Sea to the Irish coast.  They will bring the delights of Yorkshire to millions of passengers every year.

On Monday 22 March Gary Verity, Chief Executive, Welcome to Yorkshire and Steve Butcher, Deputy Managing Director, Northern Rail will unveil three of the stunning new liveries at Harrogate station.  The trains will form the 07.32 and 07.40 departures and therefore prompt attendance is requested.
