Just out of curiosity,

How much of the journey is dragged by the diesel loco? (Obviously Newcastle to Carlisle, but just that or through to Edinburgh?)

I believe the loco attachment/detachment takes place at Newcastle/Carlisle

Yes, on this occasion, just Newcastle to Carlisle. 67018 did the honours today and I think it was all timed such that the one 67 would have been able to carry out all the drags rather than tying up other locos as well
