[me123]

All correct

 

[heart-of-wessex]

3) not totally sure, but is it...3?

 

[me123]

yes

6 ) The low level platforms?

 

[me123]

I was thinking about the upper level platforms; there are 2 upstairs that it has been officially prohibited from. However, as they have not been cleared for downstairs, I can't say you're wrong.

2)
a. Anniesland (or at least it used to be)
b. 170
c. Edinburgh (or Haymarket TMD to be precise)*

4. 156, 318, 334

6.4, 13 (IIRC 4 due to curvature)

*If using the source I think you are, note the date and the fact that AIUI no units now stable at Slateford overnight.
--- old post above --- --- new post below ---
IIRC p5 (post 2006 renumbering) is only used for loco stabling and no services run into it - so it depends if you count the 90 for the sleeper and the 3 67's overnight as services...

 

[me123]

All right, but q5 was wrong! Remember we're using the new numberings...

And yes I am aware that Slateford isn't used ATM; a wee trick question incase anyone copies off the source.

 

[djw1981]

At the moment I could look up 1, but I CBA! Maybe tomorrow. Are you using the same ahem 'out of date' source for that (Dec06 diagrams)?

 

[me123]

December 06? Nope, I think Dec 08 which shouldn't differ too much from the actual workings.

 

[djw1981]

You have the Dec 08 diagrams already?........

The Dec 07 diagrams are up for the EMU's, but the DMU's are still on Dec06.

 

[me123]

Apolgies, Dec '07. And some of them are from personal knowledge (well, 1 of them).
