This is a representation of the real-world line that serves Southminster and Southend Victoria.

The railway includes a section of single track and a shuttle service from Wickford to Southminster which runs at an odd interval to the trains to and from Southend Victoria. For a short time between the morning rush and the evening rush it allows for a repeating shuttle operation.

Timetable

The single timetable provided for this railway is the December 2017 Greater Anglia weekday timetable. The standard off peak service is as follows:

Tips

  • The line gets really busy during the morning and evening rush hour but settles in to a lulling regularity during the day.
  • Watch for the 1V09 service that splits at Wickford to provide the additional train to run the Wickford to Southminster shuttle service.
