This timetable contains passenger and parcel train services, together with associated stock and
locomotive movements.

The importance of these services dictates that the planned working of these trains must always be
maintained.

The associated resource diagrams must at all times be maintained. If, for any reason, it is necessary
to cancel a particular service, care must be taken to ensure that the locomotive and train crews and, if
necessary, rolling stock, are made available for the next diagrammed working.
