Edinburgh to Penrith by train
The train service between Edinburgh and Penrith is split between trains operated by Avanti West Coast and trains operated by TransPennine Express.
The usual timetable during the day is arranged so that in even hours a train operated by TransPennine Express departs; and in some of those hours, an Avanti West Coast service leaves around 40 mins later.
Meaning that there are no departures in odd hours (early Sunday mornings are an exception).
The Avanti West Coast services have the faster journey time.
