Today (8th July) whilst watching the disruption/melee at Westbury between 0930 and 1020 on Opentimetrains, I saw a code T706 enter Wesbury via platform 1 and rapidly go towards Warminster.
It then vanished.
I can find no service with that code.
Any thoughts please.

Are you 100% about the code, was it something from an earlier view of the website?
Only trains passing non commuter were:
6A12 / 6A18 Whatley Quarry to Appleford approx 1017
5U73 Empty 9 car IET from Westbury to Stoke Gifford approx 1021

The signallers are able to enter any 4 digit alpha-numeric code. I notice that one of the sidings at Westbury has a ground position signal W706, so I wouldn't be surprised that it was a short notice light engine shunt move to the Down Siding 1 that signal is located on.
That would explain why it vanished as not all ground position signals at Westbury have berths (including W706), so headcodes will often vanish.
