2009 timetable ("Carlisle 15-10-2009 v1-5")

4S88 (due in from Carnforth Down Main at 02:47) is described as two Class 86s...yet is somehow running on diesel power?!
Is this meant to be 2 x Class 86s running on AC, 2 x Class 66s, or perhaps 2 x Class 86s with 1x or 2x Class 66s leading?

Will hopefully be able to go through the whole timetable to check for any others like this later on today at some point.

Also, on a side note, the description for this timetable seems to be just timetable version notes from the writer.

Others also with incorrect power types ticked:

4S50 - 2 x Class 86s
4S55 (both) - 1 x Class 90
4S83 - 2 x Class 86s

That's all the freight checked - I'll assume all the pax and ECS are fine but may end up checking them soon too.

Rest of this timetable checked and all others are fine.

All five of these trains have DMU and SP ticked in the Speed Classes list - is this still right, considering they are electric hauled?

See my post here, it's strictly speaking not correct, but as apparently there aren't any DMU or SP differential speed limits within Carlisle's area, it's only a cosmetic issue.
Two million people attempt to use Birmingham's magnificent rail network every year, with just over a million of them managing to get further than Smethwick.

Saw that thread before creating this one, and in-fact briefly read into that in-case it covered this issue already, but as it seemed it didn't I ended up disregarding the thread. Clearly pays to not be so hasty sometimes! :blush:
