Headcode Game

[ValleyLines142]

In this game, you must find the headcode to the following services.

I am absolutely NO good whatsoever at creating rules, so if anyone has any then do feel free to post them.

The first service to find the headcode to is Arriva's 0653 Taffs Well - Radyr service.

GO GO GO! Enjoy

2P05 is the 0658
No 0653 that I can see in the new t/t

If that's right how about the 2216 Mirfield to Bradford Interchange?

 

[ValleyLines142]

The 0653 travels via the City Line. Calls at Radyr, then all stations to Cardiff Central and all stations to Coryton.

The 2216 Mirfield to Bradford Interchange is the 1948 from London, and the headcode is 1D95.

Reporting Number, please !

A headcode is not a Reporting Number

Eh what?
This game is getting given a time, departure station and a destination station, then getting the headcode. I ain't sure how Reprting numbers enter in.

The headcode was literally the code displayed by lamps or discs at the head of the train to show the class of the train.

I think Old Timer is meaning that what is being called a headcode in this thread is actually a reporting number. A headcode is usually represented by discs.

On the left, the loco is displaying a reporting number of 0000 and the loco on the right is showing a headcode of being the royal train.

I mean these:

1E15 the 1200 Kings Cross - Inverness
1V60 - 0820 Aberdeen to Penzance.

I'm going to bring in another game; I'll provide you with a headcode and you have to provide the operator and the service. I will make sure it's not a headcode that's appears twice. So now you can give a service or headcode

So, 2M93

Incorrect I scrapped in with an edit before you posted!

2305 Huddersfield to Manchester Victoria - just be careful with this one that there isn't a duplicate headcode somewhere... common occurrence!

Next one: Please list ONE of the 6 services that operate 1L52 in weekday service
