Le Dyson Volant (The Flying Dyson)

GB Railfreight Class 92, 92010 (formerly named "Molière") flies through Winsford with the Caledonian Sleeper Up Highlander (1M16).

 

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.

 

("Le Médecin volant" [The Flying Doctor] was a play written by Molière, a 17th Century French playwright, actor, and poet.)
