This week, #ECDP took a big leap forward in our rollout of #digital #signalling by introducing the first passenger service to use digital in-cab signalling on the East Coast Main Line.
Thank you to passengers for your patience while testing work was carried out.

Last night, we won an award for Digital Innovation and Signalling Excellence at the Rail Business Awards!
Our pioneering project on the Northern City Line is the first ever high-capacity commuter railway to operate without traditional signals. Well done to the whole team!
#ETCS
With upcoming ECDP planned work on the East Coast Main Line on the weekend of 22/23 November, @networkrail and our passenger train operator partners have worked to create some ‘bitesize’ video content about digital signalling. Watch the first one here!
🚆 The Northern City Line is now the UK’s first signals-free commuter railway.
A huge thanks to @GNRailUK, @NetworkRailEC, @SiemensMobility, and all industry partners on the Government-funded £1.4bn East Coast Digital Programme (ECDP).
