Hi

Can someone help by explaining information/fonts on the realtime trains tracker page.

I've worked most of it out but Train Operating Company - ZZ has me baffled?

Also some lines are bold some are faded some are grey some are balck some are red - is this significant too?

thanks

ZZ covers all FOCs (can include charters, weedkillers, etc. as well as freight services).

Also some lines are bold some are faded some are grey some are balck some are red - is this significant too?
For non-passenger schedules, a whole line in black indicates a train booked
to call at the location in question (for example for a crew change), while grey
signifies passing trains not booked to stop.

Red entries represent non-WTT schedules (VAR, STP or vSTP)

ZZ just means "Freight Operator" e.g. Freighliner, DBS, DRS, GBRf etc.

Black means normal stopping train, grey is normal non-stopping train, red mean variation to this service. The highlighted lines mean the train is not a passenger train.
