Chasing the FIRST EVER Class 50 on this Line!

In this video we chase the extremely rare railtour, The Grampian Highlander through the Scottish Highlands.
What makes this tour so rare is the fact that it was hauled by two class 50s, 50007, & 50049.
The train ran from Aberdeen - Inverness under 1Z49, which is the first time a class 50 has ever been on this line. It then ran from Inverness - Perth under 1Z50 then up to Aberdeen under 1Z51.

I’m hoping that the Class 50s go on the far north line
