It arrives empty, presumably from Marylebone or Wembley, at the down

on this service after bringing in a peak train to Marylebone, so they
have
up-to-date route knowledge.

Runs empty from Wembley LMD to South Ruislip as 5V35, forms 2V35 to
Paddington, 2M30 back to West Ruislip, then 5H43 back to Marylebone,
though that's only part of the unit's diagram for the day.

The trains in question are only worked by Aylesbury drivers, and I
believe they need a Guard as well.

What use is a diversionary route that only a fraction of the drivers have
the route knowledge for?


When you schedule the diversions, you roster drivers who know the route...

fGW examples include only Exeter drivers sign via Honiton, only Swansea
sign via Barry, Swansea *don't* sign via Newbury, etc.
