asked Her Majesty's Government:

What are the fastest, average and slowest journey times on through services between Manchester and Glasgow in the current railway timetable; and what the equivalent times will be when the services are taken over by Trans-Pennine Express. [HL789]

Existing train times can be found in the current National Rail timetable, which is publicly available. The timetable to apply when Trans-Pennine Express operates services between Manchester and Glasgow has yet to be finalised; journey times between Manchester Piccadilly and Glasgow Central of between three and a quarter and three and a half hours are expected.
