Title: TransWilts Line brochure / timetable for the winter
Post by: grahame on November 29, 2014, 22:00:04
Timetable / leaflet for 14th December 2014 to May 2015.

At "final proof" level - please let me know of any errors.

http://atrebatia.info/TWR_A4L-Winter.pdf

To be distributed on train, around towns in free local newspapers, via TICs, door to door in towns concentrating on those without free papers.   Also looking at certain other outlets ;-)

May have been picked up already.. In the paragraph about buying a ticket beneath the 153 picture it says "you may joint the train".

There's a 0 missing from the FGW 0345 number.

All fixed - and a number of other things too, one of which required the entire tables to be re-typeset! ... I think it all looks right, but further check please.   Still at http://atrebatia.info/TWR_A4L-Winter.pdf

[b]EDIT - WRONG UPLOAD / please stop checking for a few minutes![/b]

Further edit ... please start again ... remember to do "shift - reload" to clear caches!

There's a problem with footnotes to my mind
The First class available, seat reservations available and Express Caf^ are all defined but do not to appear to be used
Footnote w does not appear to be defined in the text but is used

Is the symbol for a short platform worth it?  It only seems to be shown for Yeovil Pen Mill.  You could argue it should be shown for Melksham for the SWT hired in unit services calling there?

All noted and fixed - I accidentally posted an intermediate version.   Yes, we have stripped out unused footnotes!

An interesting story indeed.  I understand that the ATOC standard requires First to apply it at stations where long trains may stop - I'm not fully aware of why it can't be removed from First's tables at YPM - probably to do with the Weymouth Wizard.  Yes, I would agree that it would be logical to show the symbol at Melksham.

Anyway - symbol has gone / not relevant to any TransWilts connections!

Being a bit pedantic, but there is a line missing underneath Yeovil Pen Mill - Mondays to Fridays - Westbury to Swindon direction that separates the connection times from Weymouth and Yeovil.

Ah yes - I see that, thanks.  At this point any tiny correction such as this gratefully received and being fixed ... (but opinions as to what should be said probably can't be applied).   We also have an official FGW stocking number so it can go through rail distribution as well as our own.
