Help with freight timetable RTT

[Skidderwolf]

Good morning, I am looking at tomorrows (28th Dec) freight timetable for Hatton on RTT and it shows a decent amount of freight planned to run through. Now i am aware that some will be cancelled etc but how do i find out for definite what will be running? or do I need to wait untill nearer the time for the allocations to be confirmed.


Appreciate some help to understand properly

thankyou

The day after a bank holiday is generally treated as a Monday when it comes to Freightliner/DB intermodal services,
so most trains that you would normally expect to run on a Monday should run in their usual 'Monday only' paths.

Other trains, especially stone/cement workings, tend to have a 'week off' between Christmas and New Year,
but there is no hard and fast rule, I'm afraid...

The 2 MOD trains not likely to run due to the nature of the traffic. If it does run it will only be 1 of the 2 options. I'd expect the class 4's to run

You won't really know for sure until the trains leave their origins (or not). If a train hasn't left, an hour after it was due to leave, it's usually a good indication that it's not running.

Thankyou for your help and advice, I will keep an eye out on RTT tomorrow.

And often, the freight paths that are activated exactly two hours before departure are the ones that won’t run.
