The 180 operated turn, 1A61, is the 08:42 Sunderland to Kings Cross.

Grand Centrals' booked HST turns are:
HST-1 1A60 0645 SUN-KGX, 1N22 1123 KGX-SUN, 1A69 1731 SUN-KGX

HST-2 1N20 0749 KGX-SUN, 1A65 1228 SUN-KGX, 1N24 1648 KGX-SUN

"...It is important to note that substitutions often take place at short notice on the KX-Sunderland route, resulting in class 180s being allocated to services booked for HSTs and vice versa...."

If you travel on Saturdays they you should defiantly get a HST. From the information I was given HSTs are booked all day but this can change to a 180 at the last minute.
