• Trains up to 400m long, carrying up to 1100 passengers
• Some trains run onto “classic” network to serve ECML / WCML destinations directly
• A direct link onto HS1 towards Kent and the continent

Regional Economic Impacts - KPMG
• Increased rail capacity, with faster and more reliable connectivity, will contribute to the economy right across the UK.
• Brings net benefits to the country of many times the scheme’s cost
• Could potentially generate annual productivity gains for the British economy of up to £15bn in 2037 – and the regions will be the biggest winners:
• Leeds City Region - c£1bn per year in 2037 including Wakefield between £75.47m and £114m
• South Yorkshire - £o.5bn and £0.9bn in 2037.• York: c£110m• North Yorkshire between £162m and £229m

The Proposed Route
• North of Meadowhall the route would follow the M1 for a short distance
• The route leaves the transport corridor at Chapeltown to head towards the East of Barnsley
• Before Chapeltown, the route would need to climb 70m over a distance of two miles before passing below the M1
