CrossCountry is upgrading train schedules and refurbishing its fleet, with major changes launching in February 2026.
CrossCountry has announced timetable changes effective December 14, 2025, with increased service frequency on key routes like Reading-Newcastle and Birmingham-Leicester, aiming to improve reliability for weekday and weekend travelers.
The full new timetable will launch in February 2026 due to major engineering works from Christmas 2025 through January 2026.
The updates are part of a broader industry-wide schedule revision on the East Coast Main Line corridor.
Passengers are advised to verify their travel plans with train operators or via National Rail before traveling.
Additionally, CrossCountry’s long-distance Voyager fleet will begin a refurbishment, with the first updated train expected by spring 2026.
