Title: National Rail Timetable Winter 07-08
Post by: Timmer on November 08, 2007, 21:17:24
Is now online folks:

One slight problem is that the route index, the most important part to access individual timetables, doesn't work. So until they fix it you will have to download the whole timetable to read it!

The May timetable was a whopping 71Mb; the new one is a lean, mean 59Mb.

Interestingly, Network Rail left the Saturday 12:41 Barnstaple to Exmouth out of the May PDF (even though the workings at either end of the route were included). You'll never guess what they've left out this time... ::)

Update: The route index is now working. Happy reading. For tables 123 and 125, and others of course, you will need the alterations booklet, also available on this page as many services are missing on the main pages. But even the alterations booklet has services missing as well! But this will get updated regularly over the coming months.

I understand that eventually Network Rail will be able to provide a National Rail Timetable where alterations can be easily added to current pages so a list of alterations will no longer be required...can't wait!  :)
