1 Introduction and General Notes
Network Rail provide the Timetable Planning Rules document to Train Operators and other interested parties to set
out the rules which are applicable to Access Requests for scheduling of train paths on the Network Rail network.
Separate sections of Timetable Planning Rules are prepared for each Route with a National Timetable Planning
Rules document setting out procedures to be followed and other nationally applicable rules.
Network Rail will determine the contents of Timetable Planning Rules through consultation with Train Operators with
the primary aim of achieving the optimal balance between access to the network for train operations and
performance robustness of the resulting train plan. This consultation is in line with the Network Code Part D, and
Train Operators have a right of appeal to Timetabling Sub-Committee against the contents of the Final Timetable
Planning Rules.
Final Timetable Planning Rules are issued with timetable Access Request Information before the
commencement of the development period for the Principal Change timetable to which the Rules apply and cover a
12-month period. Revised Timetable Planning Rules are issued with timetable Access Request Information
before the commencement of the Subsidiary Change timetable development period and show changes applicable to
the Subsidiary Change timetable period which have been agreed since the issue of the annual Timetable Planning
Rules.
Timetable Planning Rules may be changed only through this twice-yearly process or by the change procedure
described in the National Timetable Planning Rules.
Train Operators’ Access Requests for train paths must be compliant with Timetable Planning Rules. If a Train
Operator wishes to submit an Access Request for a train path which is not compliant with Timetable Planning
Rules it should consult the Network Rail Capacity Planning team to establish whether an
amendment to Timetable Planning Rules is likely to be agreed and, if appropriate, submit an amendment proposal
which will be considered by Network Rail in accordance with the Change Procedure set out in the National Timetable
Planning Rules. The Timetable Planning Rules amendment proposal should be submitted to Network Rail as early as
possible and certainly no later than the time of submission of the Access Request. If the proposed change is
likely to involve the calculation of new sectional running times or a physical investigation then the Train Operator
should liaise with the Network Rail Capacity Planning team to establish a realistic timescale for evaluation of the
proposed change before submission of the Access Request.

Activity Codes – Notes
1. Any passenger train that stops at a location automatically generates a T Activity unless it is suppressed.
2. If an Activity is required that removes the ‘passenger stop’ Activity (T, D, U and R) from ITPS then the
‘passenger stop’ Activity must always appear in the first Activity field (e.g. T –D would be correct, –D T would
not). This is because the National Rail Timetable (NRT) extract program only considers the first Activity
field. If it does not find a ‘passenger stop’ Activity in the first field the time will not be extracted to appear in
the NRT.
3. Up to 6 Activities may be shown for each event.
4. No two Activities may be duplicated at the same event.
5. At any one event, the following groups are mutually exclusive:
a) D, U, T, N, S, TW, OP.
b) –D, –U, –T.
c) TB, TF.
d) KC, KE.
6. N, R, G, D and U are only valid with Train Categories XC, XD, XI, XX, XZ, OO, OW, OL, BS, BR and blank
(i.e. ‘advertised’ services).
7. K, KC, KE, KF, KS are only valid with Train Categories starting X or O.
8. If TF is present then none of K, KC, KE, KF, KS can be present.
9. Activity T indicates that a train stops to pick up and set down. This normally refers to passengers. Activity
–T indicates that the train stops to attach and detach vehicles. At any location where a ‘stop’ time is shown,
TPS or a similar system will assume a default Activity is required unless otherwise specified. These default
Activities are as follows: T for trains with a Train Category starting in X or O, OP for trains with a Train
Category starting in Z or E, and –T for all other trains (but see below). The default Activity will be generated
when the upload file is created.
10. If Activities U, D, N, R, OP, S, TW, –U or –D are specified then this overrides the defaults and only the
specified Activities will be included in the upload file (it is not necessary to use the * suppression code if
these codes are present).
11. If a traffic Activity is NOT required at a ‘stop’ location with Activities other than U, D, N, R, OP, S, TW, –U
or –D (e.g. at ‘C’ or ‘L’ stops) then the * must be input to the TPS or similar system train specification at that
location to suppress –T or T. If the * is not added to indicate a non–traffic stop then T, –T or OP will be
added to the upload file
12. If an Activity –T (only) is required on a train with a Category starting in X or O it is necessary to add a * to
the schedule (to suppress ‘T’) and positively show –T in the Activity column.

2 Route Description
2.1 Planning Geography
Line of routeLINE OF ROUTE
Network Rail maintains the planning geography and issues it to Train Operators using the Bplan system. Bplan data
is to be regarded as the master geography and it is the responsibility of Train Operators and nominated Network Rail
users to ensure that data in their train planning systems reflects the master geography.
It is essential that all locations, times and full details such as platforms, running lines, activities, etc. comply fully with
all of the following rules. Any Network Links used for buses only are to have running line defined as BUS. All data
used by a specifier must be that supplied by Network Rail: use of estimated times added or amended locally will
cause the trains concerned to fail validation.
In order to avoid the creation of unnecessary journey legs and associated point–to–point timings, all passing times
must conform to these rules.
Locations in bold type are mandatory timing points.
Locations in normal type are non–mandatory timing points.
Locations in italic type are not timing points but are shown for reference purposes.
Line references shown in brackets e.g. (LN656) are only for reference purposes.
In the tables below, the following codes apply:
F Only freight trains are timed here
P Only passenger trains are timed here
S Only stopping trains are timed here
X Only trains crossing from one running line to another are timed here

3 Electrification
3.1 Electrification Limits
Limits of the 25 kV AC and 750V DC electrification systems are contained in Table A of the Sectional Appendix to the
Working Timetables, issued by, Network Rail. Refer to Table A for the given location to identify the type of
electrification that applies.
3.2 Electrification Supply Restrictions
Under normal conditions, the electrification power supplies will not place any restrictions on the use of approved
electric traction. However, the Route Clearance sections of the Sectional Appendix to the Working Timetables,
issued by, Network Rail do tabulate restrictions on the movement of electric trains. Refer to Table A and select
Route Clearance.
Under maintenance conditions, certain sections of the electrified network may be blocked to electric traction. These
restrictions are contained within the Network Rail Rules of the Route for the appropriate year. Additional restrictions
may also arise in connection with engineering possessions requested through the Rules of the Route amendment
procedure.

4 Rolling Stock Restrictions
4.1 Locomotive Route Availability
See the applicable Route Clearance table for the given location in Sectional Appendix to the Working Timetables,
issued by Network Rail. Refer to Table A, and select Route Clearance.
4.2 Passenger Stock Restrictions
See the applicable Route Clearance table for the given location in Sectional Appendix to the Working Timetables,
issued by Network Rail. Refer to Table A, and select Route Clearance.
4.3 Freight Wagon Restrictions
See the applicable Route Clearance table for the given location in Sectional Appendix to the Working Timetables,
issued by Network Rail. The Route Availability for a given location is in the ‘Signalling and Remarks’ column of Table
A. Route Clearance Table D5 Route clearance of freight vehicles gives further guidance on freight wagon
restrictions.
Trains conveying vehicles that have a heavy axle weight or other exceptional characteristics, or vehicles conveying
containers or swap bodies require an RT3973 form.
Note: The Rule Book GERT8000 Section TW4 of defines a container as an intermodal transport unit constructed to a
standard (usually specified by the ISO) suitable for conveyance by road, rail or sea.
Note: The Sectional Appendix does not cover the CTRL HS1. The CTRL has its own Working Manual.
4.4 Freight Train Load Limits
Trailing load limits for all traction types are contained in the Freight Loads Book published by Network Rail.
Note: It is important to understand the weight limitations that apply to trains especially over sections of heavily graded
routes. Coupling strength information is also contained in the Freight Loads Book. Coupling strength is important in
determining the trailing loads that trains can convey.
4.5 Freight Train Length Limits
Refer to the Freight Train Loads Book published by Network Rail for the length limits of freight trains.
Note: The Sectional Appendix quotes loop lengths in metres and feet. All lengths are exclusive of an allowance of
one locomotive.
4.6 Engineers’ Trains Restrictions
Some On Track Machines (OTMs) do not reliably activate track circuits. These OTMs must use one of the following
special reporting numbers 6Z09, 7Z09 or 8Z09*. Because these OTMs do not reliably activate track circuits it is not
possible to apply the headways and junction margins as outlined in Timetable Planning Rules consistently and it is
therefore not possible for Operational Planning to provide timings for these movements.

5 Running Times, Margins and Allowances
Except where otherwise stated, the information in this section of the Timetable Planning Rules reflects the general
rules used in developing the 1994/5 timetable (Several exceptions to the general rules were agreed for 1994/5 and
exceptions may continue to be possible with the specific agreement of Network Rail in every case.)
5.1 Sectional Running Times
The definition for Sectional Running Times (SRTs) is listed in Section 6.4 of the National TPRs.
5.1.1 Source of Current SRTs
The definitive catalogue of SRTs is Bplan.
5.1.2 Method of Calculation
SRTs are revised by Train Operators and Network Rail as part of the Revision of Timetable Planning Rules process
outlined in Network Code Part D 2.2. Normally they will not change from one timetable to the next. Network Rail will,
however, re–calculate SRTs for particular train/route combinations in the following circumstances:
i) Where a Train Operator anticipates using a train/route combination for which no suitable SRTs exist;
ii) Where Network Rail anticipates a change to route data, e.g. line speed changes;
iii) Where there is evidence that the SRTs in current use do not adequately represent real train performance;
iv) Where it is cost–effective to re–calculate all SRTs on a route at the same time as a re–calculation for a particular
train type.
Network Rail will reflect the methodology and assumptions described in Section 6 of the National TPRs when
calculating TPR proposals, unless and to the extent documented otherwise in respect of any given proposal.
Timetable participants are encouraged to submit change proposals for review and consultation in line with the
national methodology, or in line with such alternative methodology and assumptions as favoured by the proposer.
NR will not seek to reject any proposal on the exclusive basis of the methodology employed, provided that the
methodology and assumptions are clearly stated and demonstrably adhered to in respect of the proposal
received.
SRT change proposals may be calculated in a number of ways including, but not limited to:
a) Through actual timing of trains
b) Use of On Train Monitoring Recorder (OTMR) systems
c) Ues of computer system actual values
d) Use of computer simulation tools
e) By any other agreed methodology
It is permissible to include percentage uplift in SRTs instead of applying engineering recovery allowances to be
agreed by all affected parties.
In the event that the application of different methodologies produces conflicting proposals, a joint observation
exercise should be undertaken to ascertain what happens in reality.

Timetable 2019 Page: 75 of 310
Electronic copy - uncontrolled when printed. Next scheduled issue 29 March 2018
5.1.3 New and Revised Sectional Running Times
New and revised SRTs revised by Train Operators and Network Rail on an individual basis. These should be
supplied by applying the methodology described in Section 6 of the National TPRs unless another methodology is
deemed appropriate, provided that the methodology and assumptions are clearly stated and demonstrably adhered
to in respect of the proposal received.
5.1.4 Timing of Trains Consisting of Passenger Vehicles on Goods Lines
The sectional running timings quoted for trains consisting of passenger vehicles on Goods Lines reflect the speeds
shown in the relevant Table ‘A’ of the appropriate Sectional Appendix. They do not constitute an authority to time
trains conveying passengers on a Goods Lines. Nor do they reflect the permitted speeds at which a train conveying
passengers can proceed. Network Rail will offer the sectional running times for trains conveying passengers on a
Goods Line on a train–by–train basis. For those times, please apply to the Capacity Planning Department.
Operations Publications publish the authority to allow the planned operation of trains conveying passengers on
Goods Lines. Before Operations Publications can grant authority, they require confirmation that the track is fit for
purpose and that there is a safe method of operation. Therefore, the Capacity Planning Department must apply to
the relevant Track Engineer and Operations Manager for confirmation of these requirements in writing. The Capacity
Planning Department must pass these responses to Operations Publications. The Capacity Planning Department is
responsible for advising Operations Publications of the requirement to operate a passenger train on a Goods Line at
least 8 weeks before the day of operation.
5.2 Headways
The definition for Headways is listed in Section 6.5 of the National TPRs.
5.2.1 Headway Values
All times are in minutes. All routes are shown.
Where track circuit block (TCB) signalling applies, the standard headways for each route are shown, together with
any exceptions.
AB indicates locations where absolute block signalling applies: here the headway is to be calculated from the transit
time of the first of each pair of trains running between the consecutive block posts being considered. To this transit
time shall be added 2 minutes to allow for the signaller’s actions. Exceptions are shown as AB and appear together
with the actual headway value to be used, which includes the allowance for signallers’ actions. Where there is an
intermediate block signal, the absolute block section concerned shall be between this signal and the next block post
in advance.
Single lines and other forms of signalling are shown, together with any values applicable, where they occur.
“OTNS” or “OT” indicates One Train Working with No Train Staff; “OTS” or “OT(S)” indicates One train Working with
Train Staff. “NST” indicates No Signaller token. In these cases only one train is allowed in the section at one time; a
second train cannot be allowed to enter the section until the first train has left the section.
“ETB” indicates Electric Token Block and “TB” indicates Tokenless Block for single lines.
“RB” indicates Radio Signalling where “long section tokens” can be issued between certain block posts during times
of low traffic volume.

Where headways are shown as being “following a non stop” or “following a stopping“ these descriptions refer to the
service that the path is following. The headway value does not refer to running lines. The “following a stopping”
headway should be applied to a service following a preceding service which stops at either a station or any other
location for operational reasons. The ‘’following a non-stopping’’ headway should be applied to a service following a
preceding service which does not stop at that location. Immediately the preceding service stops at any location for
any reason, the headway should be amended to the "following stopping” value. If in doubt, apply the use of the
“following non-stop” headway.
Light engine movements to be treated as passenger trains when applying margins/allowances where there is a
passenger/freight differential.

Note: Trains in the Down direction on the North London Incline (NLI) should not normally be shown to stop at
Copenhagen Junction. Down trains required to stop on the NLI to wait a path over Copenhagen Jn should be
timed to stop at York Way North Jn unless they exceed 630 metres in length. Only trains in excess of 630 metres
in length should be timed to stop at Copenhagen Jn. In those circumstances due to signalling constraints the
following applies: A Down train on the NLI planned to stop at Copenhagen Jn must arrive a minimum of 5 minutes
before the passage of any train on the Down Slow

Operating Restrictions –
Doncaster Station. Trains from the Sheffield direction arriving into Platform 3B will hold the overlap so trains
cannot arrive into Platform 1 from the Up Main line/Leeds Line. Trains from the Shaftholme Junction direction can
access Platform 1 simultaneously by using the Down Thorne Slow line which will add an extra 1 minute running
time. This should be shown in the timetable as Adjustment allowance.
Doncaster West Yard. Electrically hauled trains shunting to or from Doncaster West Yard must be routed to
stand behind Signal D1488 or on to the Thorne Lines due to the presence of an OHL Neutral Section

Junction Margins – Alternative Rules
ARS coding now means the following alternative rules can apply for platform 11. By using the suffix ‘x’ to the
platform number, ARS will always use the short overlap for that train, this results in the train being cautioned upon
approach to York.

Arrive Platform 11x from Down Leeds Arrive Platform 10 from Down Main No conflict
Arrive Platform 11x from South Arrive/Depart platform 10 from the North No conflict
Platform 11x is not available from the North or from the down Main due to there being no short overlap.
Overlap restrictions
The following moves have an extended overlap which clears approximately ½ minute after arriving. The overlap
must be clear for a minimum of 3 mins before the train arrives and 3 minutes after arrival must elapse before it is
reoccupied by an arriving train, 1 minute for a departing train.

Excursion Sidings. Trains arrive into platform 1, then propel into the Excursion Sidings, then run round,
propelling back into platform 1 before departure. The Excursion Sidings can accommodate a second train but this
can only take place after the first train has completed a run round; therefore can only leave platform 1, 30 minutes
after the first. The second train can only commence a run round after the first train has returned to platform 1;
planners must satisfy themselves there is adequate time between the first train arriving platform 1, and the second
train moving to that platform. All such moves to be fully timed

Restriction:
Up train on Up line – Additional requirements associated with train lengths.
If it is necessary for a train with a length of more than 450 yards (420 metres) to pass over the crossing in the Up direction on
the Up Bridlington line, the crossing must be under local control and the attendant advised in sufficient time before the train
approaches the crossing
Reason for Restriction:-
Signal SR124 at the west end of Hunmanby Station is designed not to clear to a proceed aspect until a train has come to a
stand at it. The design of the crossing means there is a possibility that the barriers will raise and the lights extinguish before a
train with a length of more than 450 yards (420 metres) has passed clear of the crossing. Therefore, when such trains are
planned to run over this route, arrangements must be made in advance for the crossing to be placed under local control

5.4.1 Loop Lengths
The table below shows the maximum length of train that may use each of the loops at the following stations.
Loop and Refuge Siding Standage, given in metres / feet or yards / SLU’s (1 SLU = 21 feet) (these lengths do NOT
take into account defensive driving policy / stand-back from signals). For a loop that is signalled in one direction only,
the length quoted will be from the signal at the exit back to the block joint at the entrance to the loop, over which the
entire train must have passed before the points forming the connection are free to be put back into their alternative
position. For a bi-directionally signalled loop, the length quoted will be the distance from the signal at one exit to the
signal at the other exit from the loop. Check Sectional Appendix for locations where standage is not quoted. Access
Requests for trains longer than the quoted lengths will only be accepted subject to the authority of the Route
Director. See also Section 4.5.

6 Timetabling Considerations
6.1 Advertised and Working Times
It is not permissible for trains to be specified to be advertised to arrive before or depart after the booked times
stated in the working timetable (WTT).
It is permissible for trains to be specified to be advertised to depart before the booked times stated in the
working timetable in the following circumstances;
(i) Where the WTT departure time is delayed to achieve the required headway behind a preceding train or
margin following a conflicting move.
(ii) As an aid to punctual departure where this practice has been agreed between the Train Operator and
Network Rail.
By agreement between the Train Operator and Network Rail, trains may be specified to be advertised to arrive
after the booked times stated in the WTT. This agreement is used instead of engineering/performance
allowances.
6.2 Timing of Light Locomotives
It is a general principle that all light locomotive movements will be timed. Any exceptions to this must be
agreed by the appropriate Area Timing Specialist.
