TransPennine Express: Hull to Leeds trains

If you're looking to buy cheap train tickets from Hull Paragon to Leeds Station, you're in the right place! The journey takes under an hour with TransPennine Express.

Reserve seats and travel in comfort as you leave the 2017 UK City of Culture. Along the first part of your journey, take in the maritime majesty of the Humber estuary and the iconic Humber Bridge. Then, as you move inland, breathe in the green spaces and communities of East and West Yorkshire before entering the largest city in the region.

TransPennine Express is a major rail operator in the north of England, running services from Manchester and Liverpool. Their trains travel up the West Coast to Glasgow, across the Pennines to Sheffield and Cleethorpes, along the Yorkshire Coast, through the North East, and up to Edinburgh.

Departing from Hull

The fastest train from Hull to Leeds departs from Hull Paragon train station. The main entrance is located on Ferensway, just to the west of the city centre. Since Paragon is an integrated travel interchange, there are 38 bus stands offering services around the city and to destinations further away. There is also a taxi rank outside the entrance.

The station allows onward train travel to the North East coast, with frequent services to Bridlington and Scarborough. There are also direct services to Sheffield and Manchester. The city connects to the East Coast Mainline at Doncaster, with LNER and Hull Trains offering direct trains to London via that route.

Main stops

Some of the intermediate stops between Hull and Leeds are Brough, Gilberdyke, Howden, Selby, South Milford, Micklefield, East Garforth, Garforth and Cross Gates.

Typically, TransPennine Express trains will stop at between two and five of these stations (commonly Brough and Selby). Northern trains usually stop at six or seven of them.

There are, however, multiple different permutations, so it's a good idea to check the results on our Journey Planner for your chosen service.

Arriving at Leeds

The cheapest route from Hull to Leeds arrives at Leeds Station. The main entrance is on New Station Street, where there is also a taxi rank. Buses stop directly outside this entrance, as well as at nearby Boar Lane and the rear of the station. From here, you can take advantage of Leeds' well-developed public transport to go anywhere in the city.

Leeds is a major hub station, offering connections across the UK. Trains travel to northern cities such as Sheffield, York and Newcastle; Scottish cities like Glasgow, Edinburgh and Aberdeen; as well as heading west to Manchester and Liverpool. There is a range of services travelling south to places like Birmingham, Bristol, Plymouth and Penzance. CrossCountry serves north-eastern and south-western routes, while LNER operates London-bound services.

Leeds is a major UK city. It offers plenty of attractions to visitors who stay awhile. For shopping, the glass-roofed Trinity shopping centre on Albion Street offers a huge range of options, while designer brands can be found at the genteel Victoria Leeds, located just off Vicar Lane. Leeds is hot on nightlife, too, with plenty of places to eat, drink, dance, or watch live music.

TransPennine Express train travel advice

While you're planning your train journey from Hull to Leeds, why not check out our guide below? It gives you all the insight you need for your trip!

  • Luggage: There are luggage racks in each carriage, plus overhead rails to hold smaller items.
  • Bicycles: Bicycles can be booked for travel, but will need to be kept in a specific area. Ask the staff if you're struggling to locate it.
  • Children: Buggies need to be folded and stowed in the normal luggage areas. (If no one has booked the cycle spaces, you can use one of those, too.)
  • Pets: You can bring up to 2 dogs with you, but they have to stay on a lead and not be allowed to sit on seats or tables. Other small animals can travel in suitable pet carriers.
  • Passenger Assist: If you require assistance to use the train, you can get in touch online or on the phone or via WhatsApp. Ideally, it should be booked two hours before travel.

Northern: Hull to Leeds trains

Catch an easy Hull to Leeds train with Northern. They'll get you there in just over an hour, stopping at a few stations along the way.

Northern runs a massive range of local train services that connect big stations like Sheffield, Bradford, Stockport and Chester with much smaller stations along the route, so they tend to be slightly slower. But that does give you more time to enjoy the scenery!

Northern train classes

  • Standard Class: Enjoy free Wi-Fi on all newly refurbished trains with comfortable seating. Priority seats are available for the elderly, pregnant, or those with reduced mobility.
  • First Class: You can't travel from Leeds to Hull First Class with Northern.

Northern train travel advice

  • Luggage: There is plenty of room for luggage in the dedicated racks, overhead shelves or even underneath the seat in front of you (for smaller bags).
  • Bicycles: Bikes can be brought with you, as there are a limited number of spaces for bikes on board.
  • Children: Buggies are allowed on board and should be folded down and stored as luggage. If you're travelling with under-5s and they sit on an adult's lap, they generally don't need a ticket. It's possible to save with a Family & Friends Railcard, too.
  • Pets: If you want to bring a pet with you, you can! You're limited to two pets per adult. Dogs can be kept on a lead, but other pets need to be in a carrier that isn't kept on a seat. They also mustn't disturb other travellers.
  • Passenger Assist: Assistance, for those who need it to travel, can be pre-booked by telephone or online. Staff will do their best to help you to get the most from your journey.
