Milton in the Early Morning Light

Just about enough light to capture 92020 (formerly named "Milton") and a cheery wave from the driver as the GB Railfreight Class 92 leads the Caledonian Sleeper Up Highlander (1M16) through Hartford.

 

Typically the station lights came on about 10 seconds later (not the first time that's happened...).

 

A revised timetable was in operation due to the Covid-19 pandemic, with two trains running in each direction - one to Inverness and Fort William and the other to Edinburgh - meaning no services to Aberdeen or Glasgow Central.

 

In summary, the uplifted timetable has a Load 14 Highlander serving Inverness (x8) and Fort William (x6) and a Load 8 Lowlander serving Edinburgh only; along with 6 extra coaches being moved as ECS on the Lowlander in each direction twice per week (Southbound Sunday and Wednesday / Northbound Monday and Thursday) to rotate units for maintenance.
