The Capital Highlander

Quick change of plan!

"Due to a failed freight train, The Capital Highlander tour is being diverted and will no longer call at Cumbernauld and Larbert. Taxis are being organised to Falkirk High to meet the train. Our representatives will be on hand to assist with any questions."

"Good work by all concerned in sorting this out so efficiently"

"Outstanding day. Thanks to all the teams from SRPS, LSL and Network Rail for re routing the train so quickly."

"Really did a great job with this!"

Other comments

"Class trip! Thanks all, especially the steward in coach B!"

"Great day out. Big thanks for the crew who looked after us in coach G"

"Thank you 🙏. We had a great day and thank you to all the crew and volunteers for dealing with the rerouting issues, especially to Graham in Coach D (aka Ice Station O) for the free drink 🤭"

"Thanks. We enjoyed our day"

"Superb day out. Great that Network Rail had us re-routed quickly in the morning. The front coach on the way back was treated to some excellent thrash in the dark. Thanks to all involved in getting SRPS Railtours back"

"Just to re-irate other comments. A fantastic day out and being at the front end on the way back was superb. Both locos were perfectly in sync which a few of us commented on. It is very rare to experience that as there is always some differences. Well planned, great re-routing and look forward to the next one"

"Just a note to say many thanks for organising such a great rail tour, and a big thanks to the staff and train crew for making it such a great day. Even though there was some rail traffic issues on the way up, it worked very well, and turned even better as for me, it was the first time crossing the Forth Bridge! 

Impressed by the turn out of the rolling stock and locos, and those 37s did very well throughout, as well as bringing back good memories of 37s in Scotland, especially 403.

Grateful if you can pass on my thanks to all staff concerned, and look forward to doing the next one."
