If a CrossStinky is running a few mins in front of an East Coast, it holds up the EC behind.
Cross Stinkys often get held up, so what could be a 10min timetabled lead at York, could (and often is) much less than that.
Coming south, the EC often runs ahead of the CrossStinky (with nowt usually behind it), so there is the possibility that way...
Yeah I suppose East Coast do capitalise on limited stops and a fast service, and what can be more luxurious than a Class 43 HST!! :
