      Really Mr Re6/6 - coloured pencil please (although I did do some using coloured pens). And as for using Excel for timetabling - it was tried a long time ago, no use at all.

      I still have some coloured pencils with BR stock numbers on them that found their way out of 222 Marylebone Road at least fifty years ago. No doubt the timetablers used the same stock numbers. I can remember when the Southern first used a computer to devise a new tt sometime in the mid 1960s. I think there was a period of human adjustments in the weeks after the introduction. But no doubt the computer had only done as it was told!
