AIUI, most charters change their steam engine for an electric/diesel for
the run Nprth of Carlisle to Glasgow etc.
The Great Briton (ain?) land cruise and others typically use this route 2
or more times a year.
I cant recall any steam charter going into Glasgow at all, does anyone
know of any that do go North of Carlisle on the WCML/GSW?
Thanks
Alan.

Not quite what you are asking, but the Tornado Clyde Aberdonian claims to
start at Glasgow, then Sterling to Aberdeen.

Yes, they're pretty rare. I did find:

https://secretglasgow.com/clyde-aberdonian-tornado/

<https://www.glasgowlive.co.uk/whats-on/tornado-steam-train-returns-glasgow-23518924>

There are far more to Edinburgh. I think the Great Britain also usually
goes to Edinburgh, not Glasgow. This year, it went from Stirling to
Carlisle without visiting Glasgow. I guess that Glasgow Central, being a
terminus, is less steam-friendly than Waverley, and it may lack nearby
steam servicing facilities.

Edinburgh is also perceived as more of a tourist destination than
Glasgow, even if passengers don't get time to see much of it.

Had this work started, might make even less steam friendly.
