16:30 Euston to Glasgow:Pendolino - September 2012

Stopping only at Preston, the 16::30 from London Euston to Glasgow Central is the fastest service between London and Scotland on the West Coast Main Line and the fastest northbound service between London and Scotland on any line, timed at 4 hours 8 minutes. On the day this was filmed - Monday 24th September 2012 - the service was severely delayed due to flooding across the network, with speed restrictions for much of the journey, making the train 20 minutes late arriving into Preston; held at Preston for a further 12 minutes; then a further one-hour delay near Penrith, meaning that, instead of the scheduled arrival time into Glasgow of 20::38, it finally pulled in at 22::00. The film shows the train passing through stations such as: Rugby; Crewe; Warrington Bank Quay; Lancaster and, later on, passing slowly through Carlisle (this is the only daytime service not to stop at Carlisle). Journey made aboard Virgin Pendolino 390 001, in 1st class. Filmed in full HD; 1080p.
