I'm looking to book the Caledonian Sleeper from one of the Highlander origins to Crewe, departing on a Sunday night. I don't really mind what date I travel but, from RealTimeTrains it seems that there are a hell of a lot of diversions via the ECML, with some trains going straight into King's Cross rather than Euston, during the May and June period.
Does anyone know why these diversions are happening? Is there some sort of longer engineering work project happening on the WCML? Very annoying as I want to travel on a date when there's reasonably priced fares available, which there don't seem to be many of, and I would like to make the trip before the old stock finishes. Perhaps it's unrealistic to expect the two to coincide...
