officer dibble OFFLINE Signaller Posts: 234 Thank you received: 22	Might I also suggest this page from the East Coast website? www.eastcoast.co.uk/Travel-Information/ by clicking on the TT links, it gives you the Headcodes, under Train ID. (strangely "headcode" looks like a service reference no. rather that its ,ore usual usage). Anyhoo, hope this helps you.

DBS/FL work trains down the ECML that then take the NLL. Scotrail also use the Sim area at times when the sleepers are diverted. GBRf are also involved in FCC driver training

Peter Bennet OFFLINE Administrator Posts: 2526 Thank you received: 334	Chris, That reminds me, Ferme Park is also where rakes of Underground engineering trains are stored often with Cl66s attached- presumably they go out at night/weekends to the nearest LU access point; maybe they're for the 'Overground' works.

hornby0729 OFFLINE Crossing keeper Posts: 33	Thank you for all your help, I have barely got the structure/frequency of passenger trains yet let alone freight although I will come to those later. For now would some be able to tell me where east coast can store trains on their route, the capacity of the depot/sidings and what type(s) of trains it can cater for? Thanks again

Many trains leave KingsX as ECS and traverse the Down Goods / Down Slow 2 up to Alexandra Palace, onto the Hertford North line and go into Bowes Park Rev Sdg then into Bounds Green, with almost all of them travelling via Ferme Park CS and the carriage washer.

Other trains will be elsewhere and will use places like Neville Hill TMD (near Leeds) and I believe also Craigentinny CS (near Edinburgh Waverley and covered on SimSig Edinburgh) but that sort of information is pretty much irrelevant to creating a TT for KingsX.

Bounds Green is mainly for the 225 sets (Class 91 + 9xMk4s + DVT) and as I've already said one HST goes in on Saturday night so it is ready to work a service off KingsX on Sunday.

You should be able to work out capacity by looking at Google Earth/Maps (other providers are available).

"Defenestration" and "Copasetic" are surely both like the most amazingly awesome words, ever!

Chris,

Peter
Correct Peter

They are currently working Barking / Harrow / West Ruislip. I should know I timetable them. Apart from Ferme Park they also have workings in/out from Wellingboro and Tonbridge. Most if not all are Top n Tail
