\nKing’s Cross Train Station<\/span><\/div>\n

If you need to travel from the capital to County Durham when you are visiting the UK, trains from London to Darlington are a good option. Services are run by East Coast, which operate fast, convenient trains up and down the country.<\/p>\n

East Coast’s trains are clean and comfortable, with two classes of seating and restaurant carriages. Their trains offer ample luggage storage in each car, so those traveling with large bags don’t have to worry about where to put them.<\/p>\n
