YORK-BASED train operator GNER is installing wireless internet access on its services nine months ahead of schedule.

The company, which runs trains between York and London, hopes to have the service operating in its whole fleet by August, ahead of the original deadline of May 2007.

Christopher Garnett, GNER chief executive, said: "Wireless internet is already proving popular and versatile on board the ten trains which already have it. We are keen to bring the benefits to all GNER passengers as quickly as we can."
