 The blue sky and the early sunshine belies the fact that it was a bitterly cold morning making the wait for this train a little uncomfortable being exposed in this field! 87002 'Royal Sovereign' makes a fine sight as it passes between Roade and Blisworth on the 'old' fast line via Weedon leading the outward leg of the two-day Clansman charter from Euston to Inverness running as 1Z42. The AC electric is leading a matching set of stock wearing a reproduction version of the very smart InterCity Executive livery that probably marked the pinnacle of BR's ever-changing branding programme.
