Very Very Late Beds - 90042 on 1M16
Running 230 mins late due to earlier traction issues with 67 003 North of Edinburgh, Freightliner Class 90, 90042 (hired-in by GBRf) hauls the Caledonian Sleeper Up Highlander (1M16) through a very grey and wet Acton Bridge.
Shame it wasn't a 92 - always seems to be a Skoda when they're running late enough to capture in the daylight...!
90042 had also earlier worked 1S25 Euston to Edinburgh - the first time one loco has done 1S25/1M16 WCML sections in one night?
