EMT HST Diagrams November?

[heart-of-wessex]

Hello all,

I am off for the Simsig Derby meet in november so want to book tickets but id like to take a HST to nottingham and then a unit to derby. This is on the 26th november on a saturdayaut are all notts services HST sets? I am thinking of leaving london around 9 am and returning sometime after 1800. Is there any HSTs around this time?


James.

Most saturday trains from london in the morning are meridians, however the 9:15 service is a HST. From nottingham, usually the xx:28 is a hst, and the other departure a meridian

Timetable here, Mer is meridian, HST is a HST suprisingly enough

Or you could just look in the TT like said above

Thank you guys, I looked at the TT as it is easier to read. I forgot their Timetables show meridians and HSTs, it has been years since I last look at one, most my journeys I just look up in Journey Planner or the FGW search rather than the timetable.

I might do the 0915, but I am due into Paddington at 0844, pushing it I suspect, might suffice the 1015 instead.
If I was late and booked on the 0915, would I still be able to travel? I know they don't count LU for delays as I would use LU, but if the previous journey to that on the Paddington train was late...would that pass?

No you would not as the cross London connection time for Paddington to St Pancras is 45 minutes so you have to allow at least this otherwise in the event of a delay you're not covered.

the 0927 off Sheffield is a HST on Saturdays, although in the timetable its listed as a Meridian.
