Normally this same Class 67 operates between Edinburgh and Fort William for some time, due to limits on equipment fitted

67007 seems to be the normal motive power.

It won't be 67007. Failed on 1M16 Inverness - Edinburgh on Friday night and was last reported on scot-rail as heading south of the border.

There are four , which are all fitted with RETB and have cast steel brake blocks (so limited to 80mph) for working on the West Highland Line. It's not unusual for two of them to be working on the sleepers on any one day and while the 67 that works the Fort William portion can go up and down for days or weeks at a time, I wouldn't be surprised if it got swapped.
