Open access operator Grand Central is owned by Arriva UK Trains that itself was taken over by Deutsche Bahn in 2010; how complicated! And, as for the history of GC itself, a book could be written on that! One of GC's short set HSTs stands at King's Cross that will work the 1N90 09.56 to Sunderland. It is waiting next to an East Coast DVT, 82218, that will also head north after the HST at the rear of the 1S12 10.15 to Edinburgh.
