Competition 207 :: Zeds
Any 'Z' move, i.e. a working that doesn't usually run or is not in a standard timetable. For example 5Z90 Derby - Laira.

Since Sercos used to be 1Z14s etc but are now 1Q14s (even though they still are Zs - just easier to identify them as a 'Q') I'd allow them. But I expect there'll be another 'Serco' competition some time soon so you might want to consider using something else.

In my experience a failed train being assisted is a "Zed", as is a train proceeding empty to assist a failed train. I've run as both 5Z99 and 2Z99 under just such circumstances. In addition, stuff running outside the timetable isn't necessarily a "Zed" either. Hope this doesn't mess things up. one TN |

I uploaded my photograph but when I clicked 'Proceed' or whatever, it comes up with an 'Error 500 Server Error' - it's happened twice now!

Technically this a Z but I don't think its worthy working the same path as a normal passenger train
