Looking resplendent in it's LNER Apple Green livery, Mayflower worked 1Z61 Fort William - Coatbridge Central. At Coatbridge Central, the passengers left the train to be taken by bus for dinner, Mayflower then worked ECS as 5Z62 Coatbridge Central - Holytown with a couple of hours layover in Mossend Yard before heading to Holytown to pick up it's passengers once more to work as 1Z62 Holytown - Penrith.

I saw Mayflower at 4 different locations: Gartcosh, Coatbridge Central, Whifflet and Carstairs. Here are my photos:
