Going to run the rest of it today will give you a shout if I find anything thanks for your hard work I tried making a timetable for bhm and just gave up haha
Thank you Braders 97 for the feedback, I look forward to it. New St can be a nightmare at times ( You want to be in the PSB when things go Belly up).

I am currently doing a Wembley Mainline to fit in with the others which is throwing up tweaks that are needed in the others.
Tweaks so far, these will all be uploaded later in the week but they are here if anyone wants to make manual changes till release.

Chrisrail, with regards to the Staffordshire "230420 COVID" timetable the 95m NT 331/1s do not fit ('track circuit overhang' ) in the timetabled 90m Platform 3 at SOT. They don't even seem to fit if reduced to 90m (the platform length shown in the manual), but do just about fit if reduced to 89m. Am I actually supposed to replatform them into 1 or more likely 2, or? If so, could I suggest a brief mention in the timetable description?

Meanwhile, the relevant Network Rail Sectional Appendixes going back as far as December 2012 list SOT Bay Platform 3 as 88m?!!

Also, across all "230420 COVID" timetables from Rugby South through to Staffordshire, the "(1) - DB - 325 x 3 - 234m" train type is set to 156m (2 units) rather than 234m (3 units). This affects 1F04 and 1A97 which are both described as "DB - 325 x 3 - 234m". Looks like this is also the same situation on Wembley Mainline as well.

331/1's definitely don't fit in the bay there. What would happen is a route into 1 or 2 and a shunt into the Viaduct siding - but I don't think it's ever been a timetabled move, it's just done on the fly.

Less of an issue now as we don't have any of the /1s in the north west, but for a while pre-COVID we ran Sunday services with a mix of /0s and /1s and the instruction was that all arrivals would do the Viaduct Siding shunt rather than risk a four car being put in the bay.

There's the right way, the wrong way and the railway.

Thank you very much indeed, Splodge, for your reply and recommendation regarding this. As a temporary solution I've removed the platform numbers at SOT for all of the Class 331 workings and will as you recommend shunt them into the unused Viaduct Siding until nearer their SOT departure time.

Much appreciated!

Hi Chris, at the start of the timetable on Rugby South 2N73 seeds at STK5192 instead of what I presume is STK5191. The train is on Euston - Northampton but seeds on the up line :). No other issues to report just yet.
This should seed at TK5185, not 5191 which is after the first calling point Cheddington.

Thanks
Jamie
