Operational Tips

Keep an eye on service timings - some trains may wait at stations for a few minutes, so its not always obvious which should be routed first at the junctions.

Notes

  • The distances and speed limits between Hinchley Wood and Effingham Junction are approximate, as the sectional appendix is missing these pages as of 28/8/22. The route may be updated with the correct information in the future.
  • The short Bookham tunnel has been omitted due to space constraints.
