The majority of the freight operators were unhappy with their headcodes being made public for commercial confidence reasons, so Network Rail scramble the public data feed.Can anyone explain why freight trains mainly are described on Traksy live maps as non standard. E.g. 601B, 693A, 0150 and 676A. My take would have been 6B01, 6A93, 0O15 and 6A76. These are currant on the South Wales main line.Thanks. Graham.

AIUI the leading number is left as the correct one.
