1S39MO needs a rule adjustment. linked to the wrong loco as 0E36WO enters the sim after 1S39MO leaves.

OK thanks for that. Will sort this out shortly. Now corrected. I will be in due course re-write this timetable using UIDs as the 1dt timetable I'm currently writing using UIDs appears to be working OK. This will remove all the TDs that have more than 5 characters with the exception of 'seeded' trains.

does 5H34 need to come out of the yard at 16:10 or left a bit later? its timetabled
to sit in platform3 when 1G35 is due 16:28 to 16:30 and other platforms occupied.
1J33FO needs a rule.

Thanks for this. I've checked both the WTT & the Coventring book & neither give an exact time the ECS departs from Coventry Yard. The station working book just states that the train recesses in the yard to form 1H34 back. So I suspect the time I entered for its departure was something so it would give enough time for the movement betweerd & the station to allow the train to depart right time. As you seem to be working your way through this timetable is there a time you find that would make it more appropriate, if so I'll change ? The other item you've post now sorted regarding the rule. Many thanks.

i think platform2 is free or 16:30 departure from the yard. 16:20 to 16:35 is a
busy time. platform2 not free 1O90 ie there. if 5H34 departs the yard at 16:30
is that enough time fore 1H34 to depart at 16:42?

Ok I'll alter the yard departure time from Coventry Yard to 1630. That woule easier. the problem with changing the platform is that in the station working book the train 1H34 which the ECS forms is shown to depart from P3. therefore changing the booked platform wouldn't be prototypical. Once you've finished running through this timetable let me know if there is anything else you come across & then I'll re-write the timetable using UIDs & then re-submit it for approval to be put on the downloads section.

no more timetable issues. had 6E30 enter 45 minutes early only to bring the single
line to a standstill because it wanted to sit there until booked departure but i
gave it a little nudge after reading the wiki.

OK thanks for that. I'll -write the timetable over the weekend with UIDs. That'll save me doing it later with regards to all the others(New Street, Wolverhampton, Stafford & Aston) once those sims have been refreshed with the issues sorted appertaining to the ear;ier eras. Will let you know on here when I've re-submitted this timetable.

Updated version of the Ctry 1988 timetable with UIDs & a few additional trains is currently under test as I post this reply(currently up to 0400am). Once I've gone through & sorted out any issues this timetable will be sent for approval to the downloads section.
