Late trains from Glasgow on a Sunday.

For many years, pre pandemic, I have visiting the excellent Model Rail Scotland exhibition on a Sunday afternoon. There was always train south at about 20.00, allowing plenty of time for some Scottish hospitality before returning home. I notice the late train is missing from the schedules on the 27th February making the whole trip pointless.. It's not engineering work, as there are plenty of incoming services. Is it likely that this train is not yet loaded in to the timetable, and will appear later? Otherwise 17.34 is exceptionally early for the last southebound long distance service from Scotland's largest city.
Any comments would be appreciated.

Simply not part of the timetable at the moment due to most of the London - Birmingham - Glasgow services no longer running.

The last connection south from Edinburgh to Manchester leaves at 2015 so it is possible to go west to Haymarket leaving Glasgow Queen Street at 1900 (or 1930 if you are confident of a tighter connection) and have the right tickets.

Following my original post, I now see that the 20.06 Glasgow to Crewe has appeared on Real Time Trains for 27th February. Seems like problem solved.
