1969-1970 Diagrams

Adjustments to the winter timetable were introduced for the onset of the new summer '69 services.
Diagrams were reduced to seventeen thereby allowing longer turn-rounds and greater time available for maintenance. As a result the following services became type 4 (class 47) booked turns:

1N08 09:00 (SX) King's Cross - Newcastle.
3S15 21:40 (FSX) King's Cross - Newcastle.
1S72 22:30 (SX) King's Cross - Edinburgh.
1S79 23:35 (SX) King's Cross - Edinburgh.
1S66 20:20 (SO) King's Cross - Edinburgh.
1L07 09:40 (SuO) King's Cross - Leeds.
1S60 19:40 (SuO) King's Cross - Edinburgh.
1Exx 08:08 (SX) Edinburgh - Newcastle.
1Axx 12:00 (SX) Newcastle - York.
1A27 14:35 (SX) York - King's Cross.
1A30 15:10 (SX) Newcastle - King's Cross.
1E43 23:20 (SX) Edinburgh - King's Cross.
3E03 23:58 (FSX) Newcastle - King's Cross.
1A35 17:25 (SO) Newcastle - King's Cross.
1A31 16:30 (SuO) Leeds - King's Cross.
1E39 22:30 (SuO) Edinburgh - King's Cross.

The new diagrams included the following new Deltic hauled trains:

1S16 08:00 (SO) King's Cross - Edinburgh.
1E01 08:30 (SO) Edinburgh - King's Cross.

The full list of revised Summer diagrams was as follows (It is noted that the 'high speed' turns were no longer concentrated on Clarence Yard):

Deltic diagrams changed once more as from 6th October, the onset of the winter timetable. The same number of diagrams continued, however, a considerable
interchange of trains between depots occurred. Alterations to actual trains were small but the following no longer had booked Deltic traction:
1L33 17:05 (SX) King's Cross - Leeds.
3S16 21:47 (SX) Leeds - Newcastle.
1N01 01:00 (SuX) King's Cross - Newcastle.
1A12 08:10 (SX) Newcastle - King's Cross.
1A17 09:30 (SO) Newcastle - King's Cross.
The following services became Deltic hauled:
1S79 23:35 (SX) King's Cross - Edinburgh.
1N42 23:55 (SX) King's Cross - Newcastle.
1E43 23:20 (SX) Edinburgh - King's Cross.
As a result of longer turn-rounds it was possible to introduce daytime maintenance schedules into the Clarence Yard (Finsbury Park) and Haymarket diagrams. All Leeds turns, with the exception
of one Haymarket week-end trip, reverted to Clarence Yard locomotives. Haymarket M-F Duty 6 has 1N10 onto 1E42 It is not sure how this transpired - alterations in red:
