Monday 7th January 2013 ~ Back to London

It was all aboard 142 093 at Blackpool North on the 18.20 to Manchester Victoria which we took to Preston. Then at Preston my ride to London was provided by Pendolino 390 126 Virgin Enterprise on the 19.58 to Euston. Unlike previous occasions when this train started from Preston, it now starts back at Glasgow, being the 17.30 departure from there. Along the way I spotted 57308 as the Preston Thunderbird and DRS liveried 57302 Chad Varah in the bay at Rugby. While at Euston, 90020 Collingwood was at the head of the Lowland Caledonian Sleeper, the 23.50 to Glasgow and Edinburgh.
