Will Dunnett, managing director of Hull Trains, said: “We’re delighted to be first, particularly for passenger satisfaction, but what we’re most proud of is the consistency that we are showing.

“This is the third successive annual survey where we top the league and it’s testimony to our unwavering focus on delivering the best for our people and our passengers.”

He added: “All these are important innovations but they’re just a small part of our commitment to giving passengers the best possible journey experience. We listen intently and uniquely to our customers and build our service around them.

“Being an open-access operator enables us to be entrepreneurial and quick to market. But it’s people that drive our business forward. We have some of the best people in the industry and over the coming years we will continue to invest our time and effort in their training and development to ensure that the service we give to our passengers continues to be first-class.”
