The train is unable to stable at Barnetby overnight due to the run rounds of freights being undertaken, because of the landslide at Hatfield (which is why the train stops at Brigg and Doncaster)

CAR NO 17080
3231 "BEN CRUACHAN"
3312 "HELVELLYN"
KITCHEN CAR 1659
553 "CRUMMOCK WATER"
549 "BASSENTHWAITE"
CAR NO 1211
550 "RYDAL WATER"

CAR NO 5991

47760

Why, on Realtimetrains, are there two sets of timings, WTT and realtime? WTT (which I assume is working timetable) leaves Carlisle at 1640 whereas "realtime" is 1612. Should I expect it to leave Carlisle at 1612? (Will help if I'm stood in a field somewhere!)

Correct about the meaning but realtime will be update as the train progresses so I would check the train nearer the time but it may leave at the predicted realtime depending on how early/late it is...

My feeling would be to ignore the real time data until morning. It is booked to leave Carlisle at 16:40. I suspect it won't be much earlier than this being a station call. There is a chance it could run a bit early though if it is a set down only job

Cheers. The realtime data has now changed so that it leaves Carlisle at 1636, about the same as WTT time. Has one hour in Carlisle.
