A draft version of the Summer 2018 timetable has just been submitted.

This is still very much a draft and hasn't actually been run yet, so please feel free to post any issues or errors on this thread.

At present all EMT and TL services are added, however freight workings are still those from the timetable included with the sim - so they will likely clash with the passenger service.

Bedford Jowett and Cricklewood sidings have slight alterations to fit the sim, and there's no Great Northern TL services through the core.

Any corrections to the EMT Meridian lengths / formations are particularly welcome, as I have had to deduce these from the WTT which has not been an easy task, and a few assumptions have had to be made.

A revised version of West Hampstead Summer 2018 as been submitted with the following alterations:

1) A few corrections to errors and glitches that crept in here and there. The start-up has had quite a few mods to make the sim start up more smoothly and realistically.
2) Up-to-date freight paths added.
3) Alterations to stabling at Bedford Jowett. As the sim does not support Jowett sidings I have used Bedford Yard, which is roughly in the same place, however with this being unelectrified on the sim trains have been refusing to accept the route. Therefore I've set up a special diesel/electric class 700 profile used only for services heading for Jowett Sidings. Be aware that if anything else is reformed onto a Jowett path then it will not accept the route.
4) A few alterations at Cricklewood Sidings as again I have had to make the sim fit the timetable, my initial attempt at doing this didn't work well as trains took too long to enter service leading to blocking back through the area. This has now been resolved with a few alterations and tweaks. The setup isn't fully realistic as the sim layout simply doesn't reflect what is now on the ground, however I've tried to create something which offers a similar experience to reality in terms of workload.
5) Minor updates to EMT diagrams which I now believe are pretty accurate to reality.
6) Rules have been created for midday stabling at Cricklewood and Bedford. If the inwards working doesn't go in then the outwards working won't come out.

This timetable can just about be played by one person, however it's pretty intense - particularly in the peaks.
