Hi all,
I notice that VWC have today hired in a Class 380 unit and run the train in the path of their usual 9M55 12:00 Glasgow Central to London Euston via Birmingham service, as far as Carstairs, where the usual Pendolino took over.
The reason being, that the inward working of the Pendolino was around 90 late I think.
380102 ran between Glasgow Central and Carstairs, with 390013 taking over from there.
I think this is a very good way of VT reducing the delay to their service, as it would have been far more heavily delayed, had the usual Pendolino formed the service throughout.
