   • 1963 June, “British Railways Summer Timetables: Scottish Region improves connections with Kings Cross”, in Modern Railways, page 382:

     One oddity of the Scottish Region timetable is that the special page (52) devoted to the "Midday Scot" shows, among other meal prices, that of breakfast, on trains beginning their journeys at 1.30 p.m. Some Scots (or Sassenachs) would appear to be late risers!
