Haymarket-Kings Cross would be my first guess, weighing in at 394.25
miles. Table 51 doesn't show distances, so this could take a while...

Just to clarify, KX-Haymarket East Junction(-Carstairs-Glasgow) is
wired, adding a few chains to the distance quoted. HSTs aren't booked
to run to Glasgow - they appear occasionally when diagrams are changed
due to engineering work. Recent examples were Sunday morning Grantham/
Doncaster-Glasgow turns, which then ran ECS to EDB/Craigentinny.

Coventry-Dunbar via the WCML 344.75 miles. Throw in Basingstoke-
Bournemouth to obtain 405 miles.

This is the FO 14:46 Bournemouth-Dunbar (arr 23:25).
