NXEC HST services

[The Snap]

Hi people,

I am after some info on which of the NXEC services from Kings Cross heading North are HSTs? I'm hoping to catch one from Doncaster to York for a bit of a bash, so wondered whih were HSTs an which were 225 sets so I can plan ahead.

Ta,

See http://www.nationalexpresseastcoast.com/en/Travel-Information/

(ignore the 'download full timetable' option as that doesn't detail traction, all the others do)

Mod note - moved to traction and rolling stock

Ensure that you view the timetables in 'timetable alterations' for weekends though, as diagrams can often change! (For example, all northbound services to Newcastle/Edinburgh after a certain time on Saturdays in February are HSTs, presumably due to a diversion)

Journey times don't seem to be affected, so I doubt there's a diversion. It could be that the power is off though. Interestingly the last 2 southbounds are also HSTs, including the all-shacks stopper from Glasgow Central.

I have downloaded the timetable for Doncaster: http://www.nationalexpresseastcoast...Doncaster/Scunthorpe - Doncaster - London.pdf

Where does it say if it's a HST or not? I know it says which is the Highland Cheiftan etc, but not other HSTs...?

On the link Yorkie provided, scroll down to the 'Train Timetables' section next to the calandar, and select an option from the top drop-down box, i.e. "Weekdays - Northbound". The 'power type' is only listed on the full timetables, rather than the PDFs.

Cheers gents, sorted it now. Good website that IMO.
