Hull Train's newly-appointed Managing Director, Mark Leving, started work with the company this week.
Mr Leving joins Hull Trains with more than 25 years of experience in the rail industry. The timing of his appointment means that he will take the team through a period of strategic change as the company negotiates for more services and introduces several new trains over the next three years. He joins the company from Network Rail, where he held a senior appointment as an account executive, working with the major train operators, including Hull Trains. This wealth of experience means that he is no stranger to Hull Trains or the route that it operates.
