Should this be in infrastructure?
Some years ago SWT recast their timetables and added as little as 6 minutes (IIRC) to the fastest schedule PMH to WAT via GLD. This improved their time keeping against the PTT and we regular users were told would greatly improve the time lost to conflicting movements at Woking. I cannot remember the last time, both peak and off peak, when on up services we have not been held at the junction or on approach to the platform. Is this because there is so much slack in the WTT from PMH to WOK that all services arrive early or is something to do with route setting at the signalling centre?
