zerovanity59 wrote:Dinky changesThose are errors on the public NEC timetables. There will be a 10:03 pm dinky connecting to train 3886. Since 3969 is L9:17 pm, the bus can depart anytime 9:20-9:23 pm once it has received passengers. The 3:15 pm weekend dinky will also run. The DINKY panel card shows these trains, and when schedules are re-printed when quantity runs low, corrections will be made.
