What's this booked for please, please don't say a single 220!

Also, what diagrams do the XC HSTs work please?

That is all you get! The HST's are well on thier way south by then. It was a HST before the timetable change.

Bugger!

Anyone knows what diagrams they work, have tried Google but it's seems to be out dated info.

Ta very much for the help guys, have to say though this journey:

1V50 0608 EDB-PLY doesn't seem so bad as it's a HST - I can always change my plans if I need to do so.

1S04 0705 PBO-YRK
1V50 0844 YRK-PLY
1A40 2145 PNZ-PAD

There's no way I could travel up overnight and get the HST unless of course, they change the diagrams so there's a HST on a later service but I doubt it.

Still it gives me the majority of the afternoon to go over the routes I've yet to do in the area so providing I do the majority of them before hand, I'm laughing, :)

I don't intend to travel until after the New Year but I would like to do this route.

I've done it as a Valenta HST in Summer 2008 :D But the diagrams were completely different then for the Summer Saturday trains.

You lucky devil, still I could do it as a Valenta IF one of the Grand Central HSTs worked one of the diagrams :lol:, wouldn't be any worse then using a 221 on a Angle-Scottish diagram.

Booked for a HST, turns up usually every second Sat, If I remember right, really depends on rolling stock, the last 5 times I've got it its been a single 220, and that was during the summer as well! Summer 2007 showed a 10 set voyager every single saturday without fail!

I've been told the diagrams are:
0608 EDB - PLY
0600 LDS - PLY
1223 PLY - GLC
1523 PLY - LDS

I can't confirm these are correct, as these arent from CrossCountry. I'm still awaiting a reply

I thought the diagrams were: 0600 LDS-PLY 0608 EDB-PLY, 0632 YRK-PLY, 0632 DEE-PLY, 1223 PLY-GLC, 1323 PLY-EDB, 1523 PLY-LDS, 1723 PLY-LDS. As far as I know 1V58 is only a Hst on a saturday to run a service from penzance on sunday

They were before the timetable change, but they may have been altered since. The best way I guess now is to post when we see them.

Unfortunately on my next journeys on the ECML I am not going to be in a position to see any of them to confirm if the Dundee - Plymouth for example is now a voyager. I would be surprised as it always used to be a double voyager when I saw it a Haymarket before the HST's came along. But I don't know if they took a set off beyond Edinburgh as this train is full of Edinburgh commutors (it arrives into Edinburgh just after 0800)
