    I enjoy the timetabled activities, but I have a small suggestion to improve the way they're presented. At present the menu sorts them by time, so typically you get a series of short "move a train from the depot to the station", followed by a lot of "drive a train from A to B", then some "move a train from the station to the depot".

    It would be nice if you could also group these into orders that reflect the duties a real driver would perform in a working day, so you could do a series of activities (grouped, say, under "shift 1", "shift 2" etc.) that save you from having to scour the list for the next likely service after the one you've just done.

    What so like a group it into what each specific train does throughout the day? As in each group follows 1 train all day?

    More or less. Drivers will often drive more than one train in a day, but I had in mind a group of activities like:

    1. Move a train from the depot to station A
    2. Drive the train from A to B
    3. Drive from B to A
    4. Drive from A to C
    and so on

    Depending on the route, 2, 3 and 4 might or might not be the same train, but together the activities reflect the work a driver does in a single shift.

    Ooo yes that would be amazing for something like BML where most of the services arent end to end
