Hi all, What timetabling tools are available that can support PEX/PIF files please? It is purely for educational purposes and play around with creating PEX files. I would like to know if they support imported PEX files without timings or other information that isn't known yet i.e. headcode...

Thank you. Just need to update my electrification maps to reflect the live status.

How far does the Church Fenton electrification go please? Does it actually reach the station or just north of it?

Why do things cost so much these days in the UK? Why have we become so bad at big infrastructure projects? Probably everyone.

It's no surprise that HS2 later phases have been scrapped to just be London to Birmingham - which everyone said it would be anyway... Do you think if the government put a referendum out there to continue the northern sections of HS2, would people vote for it?

https://raildata.org.uk is the official source of KML

Does all this include a new line between Manchester and Leeds? All seems like rhetoric and don't see any of it happening.

I've just received the following from an FOI request for electrification during CP7.

Thought so, thank you. That'll be on my watchlist for later. Thanks for sharing.

Does anyone please know if the Leven lone was electrified, or will it be done later?

Are there any plans in the near future to improve the signalling?

So a contractor greatly underestimated the costs of a public infrastructure project in order to win it, knowing full well that the government would probably pay for the overruns... Don't all contractors do that? Not a huge surprise. EDIT: Fully read the article and oh daaaaamn!

Hello, do anyone please know the gradients for the sidings within the Felixstowe port and Trafford Park please? I have the gradients the track leading up to the sidings but not the sidings themselves. Is it safe to assume the sidings themselves would be flat? Thank you.

Below are maps for those who are interested in knowing where the new gauges currently clear. They'll be more in the future.

I've already met my goals by just having a diagram. It allowed me to see: W9 is indeed wider than W12. W7A nests within W8A W8A does not nest within W9A but W7A does. W8A is slightly wider than W9A (~9mm). The rest of it is to see what others would find useful within the industry. I've also...

I'm not sure of the easiest way to show this information. It the moment I'm thinking of showing information such as : W7 ISO 8' 0" (2.44m x 2.5m container) W8 ISO 8' 6" (2.6m x 2.5m container) W9 European swapbody (2.74m x 2.6m) W10 ISO 9' 6" (2.9m x 2.5m container) W12 ISO 9' 6" (2.9m x 2.6m...

No problem and thank you. I'm not fully sure, they were introduced in v3 when C1, etc was withdrawn of the GERT7083 document. Looking at v2 of GERT, they do look different. Hopefully someone in the forum can shed some light on the differences between the 'C' and 'PG' gauges. I'll add the C...

The GB/GC is more for more curiosity. Do you happen to know where there are 'points' defined for W6 please? I can't find it within the GERT8073 documents.

I'll add the dimensions in a table and then possibly later add it to the diagram itself. I'll try and find the W6 points, and also the GB/GC ones too. I shall separate the new 'A' gauges too. Thank you for the feedback. I've only been able to find static versions. There was one in the old...

I have a tool that allows you to dynamically overlay the profiles of each loading gauge on top of each other, and I am wondering if anyone has any feedback please? i.e. what can be done better? what is missing? etc. I'm also sharing it as you may find it helpful to see how each loading gauge...
