GWR Timetable winter 1940

[Mvann]

Hi all,

A friend of mine is doing some research and is looking for timetable info on London to Maidenhead service for February 1941. Can anyone help or point us in the right direction to look at a copy, paper or digital

were timetables actually published during the war?
I would have thought
1) they were potentially a security risk
2) military traffic and bombing would have made a timetable almost unworkable.........

I did spot one on eBay earlier that was supposed to be may 1941 but don't know if it's a public or a wtt

There is a no.1 (Paddington-Reading etc) for Oct 41 if you scroll almost to the end.

Yes they were. Presumably not in usual quantities.

I'd have thought a forum member has a GWR timetable from the year somewhere!
