The last time I travelled on the Royal Scot (around 1973), it was change engines at Crewe, AC to 2 x D400's and next stop Carlisle.

Once the electrification was complete it was Preston only for the rest of the 70s then recession hit and extra stops added.I think there was a reduction in services to Glasgow in the late 70s hence Mk3s going on the Glasgow/Edinburgh push pull
