    i was able to get some photos of the new West Highland Pullman train today at Doncaster, running from Shenfield to Fort William, for some reason it was nearly an hour late leaving Doncaster after arriving right time, not sure why
    43059 has been named Loch Shiel with a striking nameplate and the power car repainted along with the coaches just the rear power car 43047 was in Midland Pullman markings

    P.s. 43059 Loch Shiel suffered a broken driveshaft and left Doncaster nearly 2 hours late
