While working to make an upcoming timetable for Swindon (based on, as my other recent timetables, the services as run on 11 November), I came upon the following issues which might require some clarification: -Two locations are marked with *DNU* (Bradford-on-Avon and Westbury) - I assume this means "Do not use". May I inquire, why? -Some locations (Moreton Cutting, Rushey Platt, I might be missing a few here) seem to be mandatory (i.e. auto-inserted by sim), yet many trains are not (officially, i.e. in the WTT or other sources) timetabled there. I assume these are there for ARS pathing purposes? -What is the timing that should be used for the Westbury (Down Trowbridge) entry point? Is it that at Westbury station (doesn't work for all trains, since some simply don't pass via the station), or that at Hawkeridge Jn, or at some other point? The description in the sim isn't exactly helpful on this one. -There is no entry point for trains from Reading West Jn. I assume, the main line entry points are to be used instead? Log in to reply |

It looks like these are related to that and I'd not noticed. They serve no purpose in the current release and should be ignored.
