hi there great timetable. it is a bit weird to see trains head codes as e.g.1234 but good overall.
i have had a few issues tho.

in the morning peak some or most trains wait for ars to become available even if the train it waiting for is behind it. the same in the evening peak.
most trains will stack up waiting for there platform even if it is empty and the ars says waiting for xxxx but xxxx doesn't depart for 20 minutes.

freight trains from woodgrange park wait for a train from fenchurch st even if that train from fen st is not leaving for 30 mins.

train 2489 enters up tilbury at 22:22H and at limehouse and fenchurch street has arr times set an hour later and after its next working which is 2392

I suspect that (excluding the last one) these are issues with the ARS system, not the individual timetable. ARS is not perfect, and even in real signalboxes human intervention is needed to keep the job running smoothly.

Thank you Rodney you are correct with train 2489 the timings should be 1 hour earlier at Limehouse & Fenchurch St - simply a typing error
