Plans to transform Britain's rail network and increase connectivity in the north are due to be published today.
A report by transport think-tank Greengauge 21, external focuses on places which it says risk being "left behind" by current plans for the HS2 high speed rail link.
The Beyond HS2 report suggests it would be possible to add Hull and Doncaster to the high-speed cross-country service from the north east and Yorkshire, southwards to Birmingham, Bristol/Cardiff and beyond.
