And the 19-year-old was joined by the Scottish singer-songwriter for the first all-electric service between London and Edinburgh.

The inaugural Lumo train service will arrive at Edinburgh Waverley this afternoon.

Bosses are promising to offer cheaper and greener travel between Scotland and England for over one million passengers a year. 

Rail chiefs also say that some 60% of all single fares will be available for £30 or less.

Harvey has been made Lumo's Diversity & Inclusion Ambassador and was board with Tom first thing this morning as the new service got underway.

The Brit Award winner will perform live to a group of volunteers from Lumo’s new charity partner, The People’s Kitchen, which provides support to homeless and vulnerable people in Newcastle.

Tom said: “Scotland may not be where I live anymore but it is my home. Anything that makes travelling between Edinburgh and London more affordable and better for the environment is good news.

"I’ve never heard of anyone performing a gig on a train before – when I was asked to do it, I thought it was a great idea. The set is not without its challenges, but Lumo have been fantastic in helping us make it happen.

“The People’s Kitchen is a great cause. I’m really honoured to be able to play to volunteers from the charity and I hope it helps to raise awareness of the great work they do.”

Helen Wylde, Managing Director for Lumo, said: “Tom has been an absolute star in supporting our inaugural service. Lumo is all about being as inclusive as possible and there are so many deserving people we wanted to thank

"Being able to host a Tom Walker gig on a high-speed train is definitely a new way to do it!”

Following his mum's documentary's success, Harvey is currently filming a new series about trains with his friend Zac, which will air next year.

The teenager was born with a series of disabilities, including ADHD, autism, genetic condition Prader-Willi Syndrome and septo-optic dysplasia, which causes blindness.
