Where can I get a list of headcodes mainly freight?

Two choices:

1. Study the (free) Network Rail WTTs for the area,
which can be found here:
http://www.networkrail.co.uk/browse...g timetable (WTT)\May 2012 - December 2012\YH

2. Subscribe to Freightmaster Online (not free!);
much more accurate/consice/easy to use timetables,
but not as much detail; in particular, there is
no Freightmaster timetable for the Hope Valley
because freight on that line is too unpredicable...

Thanks for that a lot to read but I got a few headcodes to get on with. Hoping I reading timing from it correct. Take it 00/34 for example is 0034 ?

The / just means that it passes that point and does not stop (makes more sense for passenger trains, I guess!) but yes, 00/34 will be 00:34, 12:34 am, thirty four minutes past midnight
