390122, VT 12.16 London Euston-Edinburgh Waverley (9S70, 54L), Loughton Redway bridge, Milton Keynes 390122 'Penny the Pendolino' leaves Milton Keynes station, seen in the background, working the 9S70 12.16 Euston to Edinburgh Anglo-Scottish service. At this stage in its journey all was going well that is until it reached Preston. According to RTT it sat at platform for nearly an hour eventually arriving at Waverley fifty-four minutes late. I hope that passengers on board were kept regularly informed as to what was happening, something that does not always happen as it should.
