Rare Track Ravel
GB Railfreight Class 92, 92023 (formerly named "Ravel") emerges into the lights of Hartford station in the pouring rain with the delayed Caledonian Sleeper Up Lowlander (1M12).
The overnight service was 84L at this point due to a tree falling on the OHLE near Carlisle. There was some rare track for the passengers as a result, with 1M12 diverted through Kingmoor Yard via the Up Arrival flyover and Up Goods.
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.
