New timetables

[whole diary]

[Btline]

Does anyone know what the new timetables are like?

Are there any improvements?

[Timmer]

If past form is anything to go by they should be online by the end of this week, a month out from the TT change on the 17th of May.

I can tell you that there will be a "bumper" timetable...

I did not like the way they split the timetables last time.  I was even going to type out my own easier to read timetable but could not do due to copyright.

London to Devon & Cornwall is one of the books.

[Ollie]

I got my new one

Timetable 7

If I recall the brief correctly there will be 40 different publications.

Is that the one to be kept behind ticket office desks and has to be paid for?  *opens can of worms and legs it*

I wouldn't have thought that FGW^▸ (First Great Western) would bother suing you for copyright infringment if the timetable was just for yoru own use and you were not distributing them to others (and how would they know anyway?)

^2.50 I believe...

Is this a FGW^▸ (First Great Western) publication similar to SWT^▸ (South West Trains)'s complete timetable?

[Timmer]

I got my new one

Timetable 7

If I recall the brief correctly there will be 40 different publications.

Are FGW^▸ (First Great Western) doing a complete overhaul of their timetables by splitting the current A-E books into smaller booklets?

If you go to:

http://ojp.nationalrail.co.uk/en/pj/pyot

you can make your own timetable. Seems to work OK.

Is this the future?

[RailCornwall]

Hate that NR^» (Network Rail - home page) timetable ... you can't print a full day in one go.

[Timmer]

Brilliant! Thanks for the info D_M
