The East Coast timetable would be a start :)

0540 southbound M-F is your answer.

edit: Realised you probably meant the 225 set with Flying Scotsman branding rather than the service of that name... in which case someone will probably be able to say which services it's supposed to operate, though these could change of course. This information won't be in the public domain.

Do you mean the loco, 91101? I expect someone who has access to this knowledge would be able to tell you what it's diagrammed for.

The earliest this information is published is normally about 3am on the day and kept for about 7 days - At best 91101 is and can be booked on any East Coast service.

Take the East Midlands Trains HST that East Coast are hiring in, normally it's on the York/Newark services but yesterday did Leeds to Aberdeen then Aberdeen to Kings Cross so can be used on any working - last week it was working the return service to Lincoln.

91101 can turn up on any EC service. Unless you can get the allocation list for the day you will struggle.

Yes, that's correct. A few weeks ago I was on board the 0928 Flying Scotsman from Newcastle-Kings Cross, calling at a few stations along the away. I was surprised when it arrived, because I thought the FS was only for non-stop services between Newcastle and London.

I travelled on a Monday morning.
