Hi All,

I have noticed that at Basingstoke Station when setting lines for timetables, the options are only Fast Line(s) or Slow Line(s). Would it not make more sense for there to be 4 options: Up Fast, Up Slow, Down Fast and Down Slow?

Thanks,
Jake

If you are referring to the line codes at Basingstoke, it is supposed to reflect what line the train should be on after passing the location which is true to real world. A slight simplification perhaps but that's a good way of looking at at. It would be pointless having line codes for DS, DF, UF, and US as the lines aren't bidirectional either side of Basingstoke so Slow and Fast suffice. Examples of the real line codes in use can be found here.
