Services and current operations
Lockerbie station, until recently, was one of only three stations in the UK (the others being Long Buckby and Chester-le-Street) to be operated by a train company whose services did not call at that station. It is owned by Network Rail, and managed by First ScotRail but all services are provided by either Virgin Trains or First TransPennine Express. However following the recent changes in franchises, there are several other stations that are similarly managed.
