A simulation using the May 1977 timetable. Passenger traffic is little changed from electrification in 1960. Goods traffic remains plentiful and uses both Crewe and Stoke routes. Traffic begins at 00.00 and is sparse until 04.30: very sparse indeed on Mondays.

Operating Hours: 00.00-23.59 Trains: maximum 420 (varies by day)

Detailed operating instructions included in the timetable "General" tab.
