Title: Train Codes? Post by: vickeryadam on March 12, 2008, 08:40:37 Hi,
Often on here people refer to the train by their codes: i.e. 1C01. I was wondering how people knew what they were, if there is anywhere on t'internet to find them etc. Cheers, Adam Title: Re: Train Codes? Post by: swlines on March 12, 2008, 08:43:10 The train reporting codes can be found in few 'knowingly' used places. I personally find them through a system called "JourneyPlan" that I use - see www.planajourney.co.uk.

Sad thing is - I knew the train codes for the four main trains already - I'm NORMALLY on the 1722 Hereford on the way home, the 1822 means I got out of work late - but last nights 2022 meant I was in work VERY Late Title: Re: Train Codes?
