Summary
Cambridge Crown Court heard Anthony Williams, 33, plead not guilty via video link to attempting to murder 10 people in a stabbing on an LNER train.
The charges stem from a 1 November attack on the 18:25 Doncaster-to-London King's Cross service, where passengers were seriously injured shortly after the train called at Peterborough.
Williams also denied 11 other offences, including four additional attempted murder counts tied to alleged attacks in Peterborough and east London before the train incident.
The train was diverted and stopped at Huntingdon on the day of the stabbings, where police arrested Williams after multiple 999 calls from onboard.
