This line graph depicts the percentage of all train travel in the United Kingdom (UK) which was high-speed, between 2004 and 2015. In 2010, 1.8 percent of the total passenger-kilometres travelled by rail were done so by high-speed rail transport. In 2015, 6.6 percent of the total passenger-kilometres travelled by rail were done so by high-speed rail transport.

* In this statistic, high-speed rail transport covers all traffic with high-speed rolling stock (including tilting trains able to travel at 200 km/h). This does not necessarily require high-speed infrastructure.
