Notes :
(1) As a result of a late-advised engineering possession the train was unable to be pathed out of Glasgow prior to 10:30am on the Sunday (05/10) resulting in Days Out Ltd agreeing to have 60007 replaced (timing sheet stated to was going to be by a class 47) at Skipton to enable earlier set-down timings back to Kings Cross.
(2) Route confirmation required - above is from booked timings.
