Not far to go now, only Bicester - Oxford shuttles and LU shuttles are the main stuff to go for the Monday timetable, then it's the little bit of freight and it's ready. I've E-mailed TfL to request a timetable for the Easter Weekend if they still have any hard or digital copies, and if that's not available, I said the times of the first and last trains will do otherwise, I can improvise on the empty stock turns. I know there were 5 trains out over a 15 minute interval, so with times of the first and last it should be easy to work out. I would do a public test, which I like to do for those to preview the timetable and can be tested at the same time, but I've decided to stop this proceedure. I know there are some who enjoy coming on to see the timetable being tested and I do apologise for those that look forward to it, but I've decided to do this because of a small minority who come on to help out, and all they do is complain there are no delays, they have no idea of the map (I do politely ask that you should know the area so that I can test it properly with no delays), people wanting trains put elsewhere, routing trains onto different lines because it's easier for them etc etc, and it's driven me up the wall! I will of course be happy to do public hosting still, but there will no longer be public tests. James. Log in to reply |

Just working on the Westbury Easter Timetable for the time being. The Chiltern TT is just about ready as all it needs is the LU trains in. TfL have responded to my request and put it as a Freedom of Information request which is being processed. I've been informed that I'll receive a response from the 28th August.

They are likely to give you what you've asked for, there have been previous requests for WTTs from them which have been responded to successfully.

With thanks to TfL I have completed the timetable and done the day's testing. Now just to iron out the errors, add the LU trains that would stable all day in the area, and then it's ready to roll :) Some notes: - Compared to the full weekday TT, it is quiet in comparison! I managed to run the whole thing with ARS off, but by doing that you do need to be everywhere and can easily miss something otherwise. If you want to operate a lot of areas with a majority of ARS off you can do. Is probably different if you have delays and failures on though. - I have not added any engineers trains at Harrow-on-the-Hill. I must thank one guy on Freightmaster for listing the positions of engineers trains on the Monday, but trying to get a train to sit North and South of Harrow-on-the-Hill doesn't work. I did try adding the ones that went back to Tonbridge West Yard, however it requires a reversal at Neasden ME sig.525 to proceed to West Ruislip, but I can't see how to do it in the timetable editor as there is no location for signal 525. - FGW Turbo's are fictional shunts. They lay over for so long I didn't really know where they went. - I've included all timetable errors for realism, though there wasn't a lot anyway, just a handful of time travelling units!! Hopefully the fact there is only 600 odd trains to handle isn't off putting, it's quite different with the diverted HST's and LU services. Log in to reply |
