Is it an error, or an attempt at something fairly impossible?


Peckham Rye is before both Queens Road and Denmark Hill depending on
whether the train is heading for London Bridge or Blackfriars, and
that seems to be what they've tried to show.


Don't think so. Comparing it with both directions in the current table 178
and the fact that the UP section of the new table 178 is correctly ordered,
suggests it is just another basic cockup - * accidentally ordered
alphabetically maybe?

The SET tables are now causing me some fun.

In 199 the peak Orpington to Charing Cross trains seem to have been
shifted forwards (or is that back?) by twenty minutes relative to all
the other trains. (They are in the slot where the one twenty minutes
earlier should go.)

A bit more worrying is that the morning peak times seem to be the same
as they were in the previous timetable, but on the ground this week,
some of them seem to have been rejigged, eg a Bexleyheath line train
to Charing Cross is two minutes earlier than it was, and in a
different order through the junction at Lewisham I think, but in the
timetable book it's unchanged in both 199 and 200.
