Timetabling

This page is intended to aid timetable writing, and isn't relevant to the operation of the simulation.

This is a list of timetable locations available when timetabling trains, excluding reversing locations and sidings. Trains to/from these types of location should 'pick up' the route at the next mandatory timing point unless otherwise stated.

Bold locations are mandatory timing points. Trains must be timed at these locations if they are to use this route. Others need only be included if the train is to stop there, or if the timetable source material times the train at the location.

Locations exist in both directions unless otherwise specified.
