East Midlands Railway has launched a major timetable overhaul from December 14, 2025, delivering faster journeys, new routes, and over 60,000 extra weekly seats. Key upgrades include doubling Nottingham–Lincoln services, better Derby–Lincoln and Matlock connections, stronger London and East Coast links, and wider UK network improvements. Backed by £4 billion investment, the changes boost reliability, tourism access, and regional economic growth across the East Midlands.
