Currently in the process of putting together a Timetable for the West Yorkshire Sim. Could the powers that be have a look into some minor changes.
Kellingley Colliery Bunker Line could this be a entry and exit location. The colliery sidings are but the bunker line is not and this was the location used most once the Colliery Sidings ceased being used from 1992.

Monk Bretton Redferns Glass Works could this also be made a Entry/Exit location please will assist timetabling trains.

Thanks,

Just been having a look. In reply:

Kellingley Colliery Bunker Line:
Entry Point: Kellingley Colliery
Exit Points: Kellingley Colliery / Kellingley Colliery (FLHH) / Kellingley Colliery (GBRf)

For Monk Bretton GW I don't know what the entry point would be but:
- Monk Bretton Loop (as a timing point)
- Monk Bretton Redfearns would probably be one exit point
- Monk Bretton Redfearns (GBRf) would probably be the other exit point
- Monk Bretton Loop (WK6819 Rev) & Monks Bretton Loop (WK6822 Rev) would be for the loop between the stop boards

those locations are all on the timetable list. Rev = Reversing point

Hope this is of some use: I look forward to playing the TT.

In addition to this changing Monk Bretton to Entry/Exit now would break the existing timetables.

3701 posts 		Looking at Kellingley - the Bunker line is a terminal siding according to the manual so a train should be timetabled to go in and come out without exiting the sim. Just timetable to it, form the next service then timetable it out. That isn't possible though by the look of things as it doesn't have a location.

Edit: use kellingley colliery with platform BKR. Tested and the train will go in. Stop and then come back out. It works for both bunker and colliery line.
