The company was initially formed to fund the purchase of rolling stock for Grand Central Railway Grand Central for its operations between London and Sunderland, Tyne and Wear Sunderland , which Grand Central leases from Sovereign. At present this amounts to six British Rail Class 43 HST Class 43 power cars and 24 British Rail Mark 3 Mark 3 coaches to form three complete trains. However, in 2007, Sovereign entered into a partnership with People s Republic of China Chinese manufacturer Nanjing Puzhen Rolling Stock Works CSR Ziyang to market their new range of trains in Europe, with Grand Central committing to operate the Polaris diesel electric multiple unit DEMU , should its track access agreement be extended. Grand NorthernTrains Grand Northern will obtain similar new build rolling stock through Sovereign Trains at the same time should it be given access to operate its services. In 2010, Sovereign Trains sold its three HST sets to one of the major ROSCOs, Angel Trains , which then leased the sets back to Grand Central.

They would offer a twice daily direct service between Liverpool and Glasgow with intermediate stops at Preston railway station Preston and Carlisle railway station Carlisle . They would also run services between Nottingham station and Glasgow Central , a direct service lost after privatisation.

The Glasgow Trains proposal was put on hold in November 2005 to allow the new franchises to be settled and their needs ..., Renaissance Trains is now planning potential train paths for Glasgow Trains to use and their operations ... trains news.html title Renaissance Trains now in the train and operations planning phase for Glasgow Trains publisher Renaissance Trains date 2007 09 06 accessdate 2007 10 28 ref The investment programme for Glasgow Trains includes the opening of a new parkway station on the route between Glasgow and Liverpool. ref http www.renaissancetrains.com glasgow trains.html Glasgow Trains ref References Reflist External links http www.renaissancetrains.com glasgow trains.html Renaissance Trains Glasgow Trains official website http www.rail reg.gov.uk upload pdf rawm Renaissance glas 181006.PDF Initial ... at icLiverpool.co.uk Future UK TOCs Category Renaissance Trains Category Open access train operating ... more details
