Freight headcodes

[wain77]

Is there anyway to find out freight headcodes for services shown on opentraintimes.com?

Explanation: I'm building a simulation of the Lewisham area and want to start putting together a timetable; OTT.com gives you passenger HCs, but not freight ones. Although it does tell you EVERYTHING ELSE about any of the freight trains: origin, destination, all timetable points etc. Not entirely sure why "they" think that removing the headcode will make any difference?

Thanks!
Sam

You can get headcodes from the Freightmaster book, or subscribe to Freightmaster on line, or you can view the on-line working timetables for freight services.

If you subscribe to FMonline (prices start at £29), I would be happy
to put together a 'bespoke' timetable for Lewisham for you, complete
with headcodes and any other info you require...
