Summer Sunday timings on the Kyle of Lochalsh line

[SandsofEss]

I'm trying to find out the approximate schedule for the second Sunday train that runs on the Inverness to Kyle of Lochalsh line in summers.

Does anybody have a link to the summer 2023 timetable I can check please, or any other insight into typical timings in the ex-Kyle direction?

In July 2023 and August 2023, for example, believe there were the 10:20 and 15:09 departures on Sundays from Kyle of Lochalsh. Arrived 12:52 and 17:47 in Inverness, respectively.

The return direction Sunday workings from Inverness back to Kyle of Lochalsh were at 10:59 and 17:54 (arriving 13:47 and 20:34 at Kyle of Lochalsh, respectively).

Thank you - I was hoping the additional train was a morning one.

Anyone know if provisional Kyle Line timetables for Summer 2024 have been determined yet?

The provisional eWTT has been finalised since early December I believe.

Care to advise what the Summer 2024 timings might be on the Kyle Line?

It's still available here:

Electronic national rail timetable - Network Rail

The electronic National Rail Timetable (eNRT) is a long-term timetable for planners that covers services on the national rail network.

Unfortunately I haven't found a public copy of it, but Network Rail publish a list of all the dates for each stage of the timetable. The date for publication of the draft Electronic WTT was the 29th December. (I had it wrong in my head, I thought it was the 9th before checking.)

The 26th January is the final version eWTT.

The additional train is the morning one but seems to have been timetabled to run all year round since Dec 2020.

The summer Sunday timetable has been the same for nearly ten years now so I can't see it being different this summer. Winter Sundays remains just the out and back 10:59 from Inverness arr Kyle 13:47 and returning at 15:09.

Not according to the timetable, it's 2 trains all year.

I can only see a 1509 departure from Kyle of Lochalsh on recent Sundays? (Last week, today - it ran, + next week).

ScotRail's own current timetable only shows a 1059 Inverness to Kyle and 1509 return:
