In reeality, should the Ulceby to Immingham route be blocked for T3, a diversionary schedule would have been set out to cope with the implications of the route change. Whilst most trains could reeach their destinations without problem, those trains to and from the Immingham West Jn area terminals would require being topped with another locomotive with the train locomotive at the other end. Using the simulations normal wtts would rely on a lot of attention by the host.
May I suggest a WTT based on this diversion?

First, that is not always the case. If a rail breaks then the line may have to be blocked with immediate effect, therefore, no 'emergency' timetable would be implemented and the train servcie would be worked out on a train by train basis.
Secondly, if you want to write a tiemtable for that actual senario then feel free. There are no plans to do one as part of the official release package (I'm up to me eyes doing the timetable for the Elsham senario!)
