People who work for the NHS can now pick up a free Easter treat donated by rail passengers from three Greater Anglia stations in the Cambridge area.

The first of Greater Anglia’s new electric trains which will replace the company’s old trains used on lines into London from Essex, Cambridge, Hertfordshire and Ipswich has completed its maiden voyage to Liverpool Street.

Greater Anglia is making temporary changes to ticket office opening hours at some stations and reducing a small number of rural train services from Monday 30 March.

The company is taking this action as people are heeding Government lockdown advice to only travel if absolutely necessary, which is leading to further falls in passenger numbers.

The alterations will also enable the company to continue to provide core services for essential key workers.
