TPE Nova 2 (UK)

The train operating company TransPennine Express has recently introduced these brand new trains on these routes:
Manchester - Preston - Carlisle - Glasgow and Edinburgh
Liverpool - Preston - Carlisle - Glasgow

They’ve entered service so recently that ShowMeTheJourney has yet to encounter them – hence the temporary use of an official photograph.

An image of the First Class interior is a available here (from an article published by the BBC)
Other information about the travelling experience on these trains is available on the TransPennine Express website.

These trains have dedicated bike spaces, but they must be reserved a minimum of 15 minutes prior to boardng.
You can either add a bike reservation when booking on the TransPennine website, or at later date on Twittter @TPEAssist or by calling 0345 600 1671.
