Train Dispatch Procedure

[Sheepyaidan]

Hi,
Is there any publicly available documentation of the correct modern procedures of train dispatch from regular mainline stations/terminus?

I've been watching older videos about this, so I am a little confused.

Thanks,
-Aidan

Have a look at this thread for a start: http://www.railforums.co.uk/showthread.php?t=131140

Anything in particular? It can vary from company to company, train to train, even per platform it can be different and there are many different ways!

Rule-wise, the RSSB has this document:

The formal rules can be found in Module SS1 of the Rule Book (GERT8000). http://www.rssb.co.uk/rgs/rulebooks/GERT8000-SS1 Iss 4.pdf
