For the last 5 weeks, I have checked 1V50 0900 Leeds - Plymouth every Sunday; this is the only train booked to use Kingsbury Junction - Whitacre Junction.
Today I travelled on 1V50 (formed of 43378+43357) from Tamworth at 1053, to Birmingham New Street.
I was expecting to travel via Whitacre Junction but this didn't happen; the train was routed directly to Water Orton.
I am confused that the booked timings on RealTimeTrains shows that my train will go through Whitacre Junction but the info is not accurate. I wonder why that happens?
