    Glad that DTG is looking into the feedback and working to change SEHS before release. I hope the services rework will be its increased number.

    Can someone refresh my memory about the services complaints? Were there not enough initially?

    - Lack of Depot Runs
    - AI Services that could be operated by the player
    - Low levels of route traffic
    - Unrealistic timetable

    I think it will, it would be weird for them to bring up the fact they they’re addressing it, it might be that the AI 395’s that currently operate between St. Pancras and Ebbsfleet become player usable.

    It could also just be that they will discuss why there are so few compared to IRL and that we won’t see an increase at all.

    Yeah not only that but it will add a different type of service, some people may just want to drive the HS1 section back and forth, rather than having to continue on with a stopping service for 40 minutes.

    There are, but we don’t have a full list of the services that are in game, all we know is the amount.

    Southeastern have also reduced their services due to covid, so it also depends on what timetable they have used.

    I think what needs to added to the timetable is the following:
    • A second westbound Javelin service from Faversham to London St Pancras since the timetable we saw last Friday was set in COVID times when Southeastern cut services to St Pancras in the westbound direction at peak times (2tph from St Pancras-Faversham, 1 tph from Faversham-St Pancras)
    • Making all the Ashford bound trains drivable.
    I think that's the minimum required to complete the timetable right now. I don't think we will see freight unless some wagons from other routes are place in Hoo Junction and I also not sure we see any more services traverse the Strood-Gravesend section of the line either. Although I did see that Southeastern does currently run 1 service per day in each direction down that section of the line heading towards Charing Cross, but whether that will be in the timetable when the route comes out or it is being saved for the 465 coming soon after release, we will see.
