Double Delay

GB Railfreight Class 92, 92043 approaches Acton Bridge at speed with the delayed Caledonian Sleeper Up Highlander (1M16).

 

The Highlander was late away from Edinburgh due to the Fort William portion being delayed over an hour by fire alarm activations.

 

The service was 34 Late at this point and eventually arrived into Euston 27 Late per the WTT, but only 14 Late per the GBTT.

 

The Highlander was faring better than the Lowlander, though - passing through only 14 minutes after 1M11, when the gap should be over an hour. With both of Friday night's Up services also delayed, this meant an unwelcome book-end either side of the weekend.
