There's speculation bosses are considering pushing back its Euston terminus to 2038, or scrapping it completely.

HS2, or High Speed 2, was originally intended to connect London with Birmingham, Manchester and Leeds.Work on the first phase of the project - between London and Birmingham - is well under way and that part of the line is due to open by 2033.

The estimated cost of HS2 was between £72bn and £98bn at 2019 prices. A budget of £55.7bn for the whole of HS2 was set in 2015 - but this was made before the Leeds leg was cancelled.
