I'm putting together a 2017 timetable for Tyneside. I'm confused by the Wylam entry point on the Carlisle line as this seems to be before Wylam station. Validation adds a Wylam passing time for trains that don't stop there. Is the entry point on the Up Carlisle actually at Prudhoe?

I can understand Chris' confusion. There is indeed a place called Wylam which is on the "Hadrian's Wall" line between Newcastle and Carlisle. The entry point Chris refers to is, however, on Tyneside IECC simulation and is referred to on there as "Wylam (Up Carlisle".

HTH,
Dave

Sounds about right. However I just looked at the list of destinations on the Tyneside IECC sim and it includes both Wylam and Prudhoe and will validate a timetable even if both places are used.
