Glasgow-Edinburgh trains

[Yorkshireman16]

hi what units work the Edinburgh-Glasgow trains now not bee there for a few years but going up from York 12 march do any scotrail H.S.T,s work any trains thanks

Scotrail:
Queen Street High Level – Edinburgh (via Falkirk) are now officially all 385s.
Queen Street Low Level – Edinburgh (via Bathgate) are 334s.
Central High Level – Edinburgh (via Shotts) are now mainly 385s but you may find a few DMUs.

The ScotRail HSTs are used for Aberdeen and Inverness services.

From Central there are also XC services via Edinburgh and 1 daily East Coast (or whatever it’s called this week) I am not up to date with what is being used on these but there may be at least one XC HST still used.

And also a rough 2 hourly Glasgow Central - Edinburgh via Carstairs which uses a mix of 380s & 385s

The LNER service is a 9 coach 801 I believe

One of the Shotts line services are also a 4 car Class 380.

Any services that run through to Ayr must be 380s - Ayr drivers don't sign 385 AFAIK

I believe some can sign 385s but you'll only find 380s on those EDB-AYR services

All XC Edinburgh - Glasgow services are Voyagers. Except the last one at 2114 which is an HST in that direction only.

I've seen an HST work one of the Saturday morning services on a few occasions, but presumably that's not a regular thing?

Not at the moment no. Has been in the past during the summer timetables.

I think it may well have been summertime, so that likely explains that.

0900 from Glasgow to Penzance , summer saturdays , 0600 xc may be HST too
