Helen Wylde, Managing Director for Lumo, said, "Traveling in the U.K. should not cost a fortune and it certainly shouldn't be the planet that pays. Whatever your preferred mode of transport, we are likely to be more affordable and kinder to the planet."
Wylde said travellers are now thoughtful and are worried about their impact on the environment. He further mentioned, "They also expect better service and catering. Lumo is a new rail travel experience that is kinder to the planet and better value for passengers, while never compromising on service."
Though the train is a low-cost one, it doesn’t compromise on luxury. The ergonomically-designed train seats are absolutely comfortable and perfect for a long journey. Complimentary Wi-Fi and seat-to-seat catering service are another prominent feature of the train.
According to the local reports, the London-to-Edinburgh train service will start from October 25, 2021.
