    Maybe to avoid running tender first if a diesel pilot is always needed at the front?

    (Pure speculation, I have no idea)

    There a turntable at Carnforth?

    I am sure it has been mentioned previously that there is a gauging issue somewhere which often explains the peculiar routes Scotsman takes to and from Carnforth?

    I’m sure there’s a video somewhere I saw of Scotsman going from Carnforth to Hellifield via so she could haul a tour from Hellifield to Carlisle

    FS ran direct from Carnforth to York via Hellifield earlier this year. If it is a gauging issue then it only affects a westbound move

    Correct. 60103 is not allowed past southbound platform 1 at Carnforth hence today's route.

    Eastbound moves from Steamtown do not run through the station but start at the western end of platform 2.
