LNER: About the Company

LNER (London North Eastern Railway) serves the northern and north-eastern regions of the UK from London, and the major Scottish cities of Glasgow, and Edinburgh. The LNER timetable is very regular, with trains running throughout the day on weekdays and weekends about once every 30 minutes or so. This makes LNER a very reliable train company to use for the commute between these cities and London as well as more leisurely trips. As you can easily compare LNER train timetables, Omio is the ideal place to book LNER tickets from the convenience of your home.
