Glasgow Central
87014 pulls out of Platform 1 at Glasgow Central with the 1615 to London Euston on 1 June 1997. (Why?) The locomotive is carrying the name Knight of the Thistle, being both a member of a most noble and ancient Scottish Order, as well as the name of the winner of the 1897 Royal Hunt Cup. The last locomotive to carry the name, A3 Pacific no 60065, while named after the latter, got into trouble because of the former see image 22899.
