XC Sunday timetable.

[Mugby]

Looking for the first trains from Birmingham to Derby on Sunday morning (26th May) the first two are 0946 and 1049, both Edinburgh services.
The latest XC timetable booklet doesn't show any such trains during it's entire currency.

Why can't XC get the booklet right? It's only a week old and they must have known about these re-timings some considerable while ago.

Timetable is different this Sunday due to diversions via Toton between Derby and Chesterfield.

The XC timetables generally show the passenger timetable minus any single weekend engineering works, it does mention any longer term engineering works, but the works this weekend are only occurring this weekend, if timetables advertised every change of time every weekend you'd have a train time for every sunday in the entire timetable period, and therefore you'd have a notes section taking up half the book.

Thanks for that. Youve just given me an idea for a ride around this weekend

According to the timetable booklet the first train should be 0903, diverted via Leicester to Derby.
This is now cancelled and replaced by the 0946, direct to Derby and then via Toton to Chesterfield.

So are the Leicester diversions cancelled for this Sunday only?

Indeed that is correct.
