Sleeping

Yes the sleeping sleeper!

This Blip of the Caledonian Overnight Sleeper, in the sidings of Aberdeen Railway yard. Waiting to be moved later tonight for the 9:45pm departure to Euston Station in London.

The Caledonian Sleeper is a sleeper train operated by First ScotRail. It is one of only two on the British railway network, the other being the Night Riviera.

It connects London Euston nightly except Saturday with five Scottish termini: Aberdeen, Edinburgh, Fort William, Glasgow and Inverness, and intermediate stations. The Fort William service is known colloquially as The Deerstalker.

The trains normally operate at a maximum speed of 80 miles per hour (130 km/h), but are authorised to travel at 100 miles per hour (160 km/h) where line speeds permit if the train has been delayed by more than 20 minutes.
