A passenger passes a London North Eastern Railway (LNER) train at King’s Cross rail station in London on June 25, 2018, during a photocall for the re-launch of the rail service on the East Coast mainline. - The LNER service was relaunched Monday after Britain’s Transport Secretary Chris Grayling announced last month he would bring the franchise back under public control and terminate the franchise with Virgin Trains East Coast (VTEC), which had overbid and made a loss. The East Coast railway line -- which links London with Durham, Leeds, York, Newcastle and Edinburgh -- was awarded to Virgin Trains East Coast (VTEC) three years ago in a £3.3-billion franchise contract initially due to run until 2023.
