Yet another very late arrival at King's Cross station. Arriving forty-six minutes adrift 43305 leads the 14.00 Edinburgh HST service as it weaves into platform six. The building work on the former depot site is growing fast and somewhat encroaches on the station approach as it does. A huge amount of work is about to take place at King's Cross as Network Rail embarks on a programme to increase its capacity. This includes the reopening of the third tunnel to the right and the demolition of the power signal box, built in 1971, with control moving to the York signalling centre.
