Just out of interest, when did the dc platforms switch from being P4/P7 - I'd assume sometime during the '60s rebuild

i cant seem to successfully platform any of the morning 5D/5L/5M ECS trains into two platforms without having to make a lot of manual retimetabling and shuffling

Worked ok for me, with a bit of forward planning in the simplifier. 5M90 can go pretty much anywhere - P8 worked for me. 5M92 into P14, followed by 5M82 (as the latter's next working leaves before the former's). 5B01 can then go into P12, which isn't required for a while. I've never appreciated how useful the simplifier could be until now!

" said:i cant seem to successfully platform any of the morning 5D/5L/5M ECS trains into two platforms without having to make a lot of manual retimetabling and shufflingjc, DC train TTs have platform numbers allocated. Any trains without an allocated platform can fit in any vacant platform. You need to check the TT to see what platforms are available so as not to block those trains which have a platform allocated Barry Barry, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia Log in to reply |

not all the DC trains do have platform allocations in the morning, hence the need to do what late turn has suggested to me

Despite coming from or going to the DC lines, some of those early ECS movements are actually DMUs (presumably going to work the service on the T&H line).

Just as a suggestion to the un-numbered arrivals for the class 5's as the TT is modified to use any era plats 16-18 are unused and as such will not cause any conflict

Select a location from the drop-down list. Tick the specific location (e.g: a platform at Euston). Click refresh at bottom. Should work.

i have no refresh button visible at all in my window, whatever size I make it, even if I make it full screen. Is this a possible bug?
