The improvements have been made possible as a result of East Midlands Trains working with the Department for Transport to secure four additional trains for its network.
The introduction of these trains means that an additional 10 trains every weekday on the busy Nottingham-Sheffield-Liverpool route will be strengthened to provide double the seating capacity.
This marks the start of East Midlands Trains’ new timetable, whereby many services will be strengthened from 2-car to 4-car trains:
