All the passenger services over the Settle to Carlisle route are class 2 workings except this one. 158774 in First Group Trans Pennine livery forms 1M53 0947 Leeds to Carlisle. This class 1 train used to continue to Glasgow but was cut back to Carlisle several years previously.
In lovely warm spring sunshine 390003 gets way with 1M15 1110 from Glasgow Central to London Euston. Virgin would like to increase these 9 coach sets to 11 coaches due to increased demand, this was something they achieved a few years later.
