Grand Central is an open-access passenger train operator. We carry passengers from London Kings Cross to York and the North East and to Doncaster and West Yorkshire. Grand Central became part of the Arriva group, which is owned by Deutsche Bahn, in 2011. Grand Central reaches the parts of the country other services don't – directly linking large cities in Yorkshire and the North East with London, often for the first time in years. Grand Central's first route was launched in December 2007 and linked London Kings Cross with York, Thirsk, Northallerton, Eaglescliffe, Hartlepool and Sunderland. In 2010, a new service, now calling at Bradford, Low Moor Halifax, Brighouse, Mirfield, Wakefield, Pontefract and Doncaster linked West Yorkshire with London Kings Cross. We work hard to recruit and train staff for our trains. Our committed and passionate people are our most valuable asset, and we always get involved with our local communities and charitable events.
