If At First . . .
Scotrail's HST sets only work a handful of services on the Inverness - Aberdeen line and often seem to be substituted by DMUs, so it took several attempts to get a shot of one at Glanderston, between Kennethmont and Insch. 43138 and 43168 finally obliged on 10 May 2025, working 1A16, the 12:39 from Inverness.
