Evening all,

I have compiled this from another forum which has a "December 2015 TT changes" thread. It is a list of changes that I have heard of so far on areas currently covered by SimSig.

Kings Cross and Peterborough:
Moorgate will now be open on Saturdays and Sundays.

Also Virgin Trains East Coast (VTEC) will be running Kings Cross to Sunderland as well as extra swervices to Stirling:

1Y08 0540 Sunderland - London Kings Cross
1N33 2000 London Kings Cross - Sunderland

1E03 0526 Stirling - London Kings Cross
1S22 1500 London Kings Cross - Stirling

Paisley:
According to OTT, there is going to be an overhaul on the Ayr to Stranraer services.

+ Hourly service between Ayr and Girvan throughout the day.
+ Two-hourly service between Kilmarnock and Stranraer throughout the day.
+ Improved Sunday service between Ayr and Stranraer. Four services southbound and five services northbound, compared with the current frequency of three services each way.

- No service from Kilmarnock to Ayr between 1458 and 1803.
- Services to Glasgow Central via Kilwinning have all been withdrawn, this includes the Sunday service, which has been replaced by an Ayr to Stranraer shuttle.

Salisbury
Extension of some London Waterloo services to start from / terminate at Yeovil Junction or Yeovil Pen Mill: some of these will run via. Westbury, Frome, Bruton and Castle Cary.

Swindon & Didcot (Paddington - Oxford / Worcestershire):
Major timetable changes to afternoon and evening journeys. Interestingly includesa Fridays only extension of 23:18 Paddington - Oxford all the way to Morton-in-Marsh, calling additionally at Hanborough, Charlbury and Kingham. Details on the website of the Cotswold Line Promotion Group: http://clpg.org.uk/content.php?pagename=News-Page

Upminster IECC
c2c no longer serve Liverpool Street M-F but have 2tph going there Sat & Sun. On a Sunday, ALL Shoeburyness trains during the day (not morning or evening) go into LST instead of Fenchurch Street. They now have 9xxx headcodes to show this.

Westbury
As Salisbury.

Wwest Hampstead
Major changes to the Brighton Main Line: a consultation document was launched for these changes but I am not sure where online it now is so I attach it to this post.

That is all I have so far: anyone know of any others?
