The Orcadian was a named passenger train operating in the United Kingdom.[1]

History

The service was introduced in April 1936 by the London, Midland and Scottish Railway.[2] It was given to the 6.30am train from Inverness, and the return service from Wick at 3.35pm.

The train was retained in the era of British Rail and in 1964[3] offered a journey time of four hours, compared with other services on the line taking five hours.
