Some additional services operate in peak hours (particularly to King's Lynn), and plenty of freight services operate to various destinations along the route throughout the day, as it acts as a major through route to Felxistowe and Harwich.

Suggested platform allocations have been provided for Ely, due to the limited platform space and large number of services passing through or changing direction at this station. While it is not essential to follow this, it is recommended to in order to avoid conflicting movements over the junctions as much as possible.

A large portion of these routes use multiple speed limits - a higher limit for passenger multiple units and a lower limit for loco-hauled freight services. As this is not possible to replicate in ROS, only the higher speed limit has been included. As such, freight services often end up running early. Be careful not to route them ahead of passenger services which may get stuck behind them later on. Don't be afraid to use the passing loops to let a freight train wait for its correct schedule again!

Several level crossings are present along the Breckland Line. These add an additional challenge to the simulation, as trains can't be routed to far ahead in order to not block roads for too long. Try not to make the trains stop at red signals though!
