Notes :
(1) Timing sheet records that the train was due to reverse and transfer from [P5] to [P4] via a siding but is not clear if passengers were permitted to remain on board for that move.
(2) Route confirmation required - above is from booked timings which suggested an identical itinerary was due to be followed on each of the two days this train ran. Confirmation is also required as to which legs were propelled by 12 (as opposed to hauled).
