According to Virgin Trains literature map Pendolino trains are only used on routes going in to London and Voyager trains run on diesel. However, in early 2005 I caught a train from Edinburgh to Leeds (with a final destination of Birmingham) which was a new type of Virgin Train which I’m sure was running on overhead electrics. Was this Pendolino train or a different type of train?

I also heard that the London to North Wales route uses dual powered vehicles. Is this true and if so then what’s the official name for them?
