The up Highland sleeper passes through Roade taken from Hyde Road bridge. Freightliner's 90042 leads the set of Mk. III stock that started out, as usual from Fort William, Inverness and Aberdeen all coming together in the middle of the night at Edinburgh. In theory, this should be the final up sleeper using the thirty-year-old stock prior to the introduction of the CAF Mk. IV stock. However, with yet more problems appearing within the software systems of the new stock, this has been pushed back again to Septemeber at the earliest.
