90044, CS 19.50 Fort William, 21.43 Aberdeen, 20.45 Inverness-London Euston (1M16, RT), Victoria bridge
In their final week or so of operation the Mk. III sleeper stock is still utilised on the 1M16 Highland Sleeper with 90044 hauling the train. It is seen passing Victoria Bridge near Roade about forty-five minutes from London. The new Mk. V stock has been introduced and I was not sure until the train appeared if it was going to be the new or old stock.
