(Apologies for placing this in the general timetable section but there isn't a section for Brighton at the moment. Didn't seen the Three Bridges section - doh. Mods feel free to move this thread to where it is best suited)

This has now been uploaded and approved by the moderators.

The timetable is the first I have uploaded and although it has been tested numerous times; there maybe minor things that were missed. My thanks to John in his assistance with the testing.

Timetable info

This is a timetable written by Gareth C (TimTamToe) from the December 2011 - May 2012 WTT for the Brighton part of the Three Bridges Simulations. The Timetable runs from 00:00 to 27:00.

Due to there being no entry locations between Balcombe Tunnel Jcn and Preston Park, a number of the trains entering around 00:00 are SEED trains for services later on in the morning. These SEED trains may also have differing calling patterns / timings from the WTT to enable them to fit and run accordingly (for example 2T75-1 timings before Burgess Hill are inaccurate as real times would be before 00:00)

Where trains join / divide mid-journey (most notably at Haywards Heath), a new "activity" has been created to reflect the new length of the train to aid platforming where more than one train can be berthed together but are not set to join each other and also in times of disruption for platform alterations.

Example for Joining: 1H15-1 (4 car) joins 1F15-1 (8 car) at Haywards Heath towards London. At Haywards Heath after joining 1F15-2 (12 car) is formed.

Example for Splitting: 1H02-1 (12 car) divides at the rear to form 1F06-1 (8 car) and the front becomes 1H02-2 (4 car). Only 1F06-1 needs to be interposed at the rear, the timetables for 1H02 will change automatically.

Hove platform 3 should not be used for stopping trains from 11pm until the first train of the morning.

The very few frieght trains on the Brighton Mainline are included as are Rail Head Treatment Trains and some First Capital Connect (FCC) driver training trips.

Rules have been added to make the timetable more intense and challenging through times of disruption. These rules relate to the Minimum turnaround times according to Network Rail's "Rules of the Plan" (eg min turnaround 10min on FCC services.)

Big thanks to John (John) for helping to test this timetable.

I hope you enjoy this timetable and post any comments problems here
