- The Citadel Circle
Saturday 25 July 2026
125 Group are pleased to announce that we will be taking our HST to Carlisle on Saturday 25th July 2026.
Working with our good friends at Retro Railtours, who will manage all aspects of the bookings on our behalf, 'The Citadel Circle' will operate as follows (ALL TIMINGS ARE APPROXIMATE UNTIL CONFIRMED BY NETWORK RAIL):
Outbound -
Departs Manchester Victoria - 0700
Crewe - 0815
Derby - 0930
Chesterfield - 0950
Sheffield - 1010
York - 1110
Carlisle - 1330
Return -
Departs Carlisle - 1600
Crewe - 1800
Derby - 1930
Chesterfield - 1950
Sheffield - 2010
Wakefield Kirkgate - 2040

The train will then travel north on the East Coast Main Line and should demonstrate its full speed capability before taking the spur from Low Fell to Norwood Junction for a more leisurely run across the Tyne Valley via Haltwhistle to Carlisle for a break.
The return will be via the West Coast mainline direct to Crewe (with connections for Manchester available - these are NOT included in the fare), before completing the circle for everyone by retracing our steps to set down at Stoke, Derby Chesterfield and Sheffield. Our final set down will be at Wakefield Kirkgate.
First Class and Standard class seating will be available on board and a counter service buffet serving hot and cold food and drinks will be available throughout.
We look forward to welcoming you aboard 'The Citadel Circle' on the 25th July.
