I was quite surprised they didn't cancel them all outright earlier in the day given the severe weather warnings that were issued.
To be fair to Caley Sleeper, they usually give it their best shot whatever the weather. Before the Pendo hit the tree near Lockerbie at c.8pm I think things were looking reasonably achievable. Also, I wonder where the compensation liabilities lie - if Serco cancel pre-emptively, they'd probably take the hit. Whereas they attempt to run the services and the infrastructure is blocked then I'm pretty sure Network Rail will be picking up the tab.
