- Virgin Trains East Coast is a trading name of East Coast Main Line Company Ltd (ECMLCo), a subsidiary of Directly Operated Railways Limited, which was formed by the Department for Transport as an operator of last resort when National Express refused to offer any more financial support to its National Express East Coast (NXEC) subsidiary and consequently lost its franchise. The government stated that it would temporarily re-nationalise the franchise and transfer the assets of NXEC to Directly Operated Railways, which would retain existing NXEC service levels, pending re-tendering the franchise in 2010, a date that has now been postponed. Virgin Trains East Coast operates long-distance passenger services principally from London King's Cross to Edinburgh Waverley via Newcastle Central, and from King's Cross to Leeds, with other services reaching into Yorkshire and Northern and Central Scotland.
