... and the stations don't yet have platform numbers.

But I'm sure Poggs will be along soon to rectify.  Wink

.... and so are Patchway station and Patchway tunnels. The station which should be positioned between berth for signal 1536 and 1526.

 Just watched 3X09 IEP (Intercity Express Program / Project. This will offer more capacity on routes, save money, give a consistent and safe service and meet customer requirements. Intended to replace HSTs.) test working  stood at signal 1526 when signal 1536 turned green and 2C67 occupied the berth for that signal thus giving the impression that 2C67 was going to rear shunt 3X09 but 2C67 disappeared so I assume Patchway Junction is at this position.

In the down direction headcodes appear in the berth for signal 1003 so I assume in the down direction Patchway Junction lies between signals 1003 and 1533.

Finally for my twopennyworth the berths at Bristol Parkway could be realigned to the platforms.

The Paddington map on OTT (Open Train Times website, or possibly 'over the top', depending on context) hasn't been updated yet, looks like Poggs is taking a bit of a break to work on projects that earn him money as there's been no updates since October.  Hopefully an update will follow shortly.  In the meantime, there is a void that up trains disappear into when they are approaching Paddington as a new signal section has been inserted, and the track layout is now quite substantially altered in the area.  The Railcam maps (which has a small annual subscription) have been fully updated.

Paddington map now updated with the Crossrail connection + signalling.

Also added are the missing SN** signals towards Greenford East; the new Up Main to Down Relief Crossover at Kensal Green; the new Up signal (SN126) on the Down Relief at Kensal Green; the signalling changes at Royal Oak sidings - however Poggs has missed the new crossover into Line 6 prior to SN26.

Turning signalling into a video game since 1988.

Now that would be an interesting flyover!  I think you mean Line 1 not Line 6.  It's the re-instated P8009.  These points got removed after the resignalling that re-instated Ladbroke Grove, because the steam-8086-powered SSI (Solid State Interlocking) didn't have enough capacity for both the additional signalling protection at Ladbroke, and all the routes from platforms 2-5 to Royal Oak Sidings.  Now that the interlocking has been re-platformed (ho ho!), there's enough space and processing capacity to have these back again.

I certainly did mean Line 1 - had Line 6 on my mind for some reason.

If you want to see a OTT (Open Train Times website, or possibly 'over the top', depending on context) work of art - I suggest you look at the new London Bridge map on the Kent area maps.

Latest update includes route indications at Didcot Parkway and the surrounding area.  Hopefully route indications at Reading (and Oxford when it’s resignalled in July) will follow as they are most useful.

I really hope this is an "indications" failure and not the situation at Thingley Junction....

I think RTT» (Real Time Trains - website) has gone out of step (pun intended) with the TD database.  The TD maps on RAILCAM seem to be OK.

Just in time for it, and then the adjacent Parkway map, to need updating when Filton bank gets, yes you guessed it, four-tracked!
