11:53 - 87027 Wolf of Badenoch with a service to Northampton (Euston closed due to Crewe & Stafford upgrade)
Having heard about Voyagers and Pendolinos being introduced on the North Wales Coast next year, I fancied a ride behind a Virgin 47 before the end of this summer timetable.
I caught the 09:18 from Bangor to Crewe (08:51 ex-Holyhead) which was 175109+175008, this forms the 11:25 back to Holyhead
