(29 Aug 2014, 7:14 am)Roland Pratt Why does your search function only work if four characters long, so can't search for a 3 digit fleet number?
Not unusual for typical bulletin board software.

Because of the additional load it can put on SQL (database). It's also why there's a search throttle in place too.

There are far more three-digit 'words' than four-digit 'words'.

By restricting the number of digits (to four) the 'computer' has fewer operations to make with fewer answers.

If you allowed a search on just one digit you would get a considerable number of answers, most of which would be false.

Two digits eases the situation, and three moreso, and four makes the computational 'load' tolerable.

Edited to add:-

SQL = Structured Query Language (Click) which is a special-purpose programming language designed for managing data held in a relational database management system (which is a table of words that constitute this forum).

You can only perform a search every 30 seconds.

I notice there's a new X1 (Boro-Durham) timetable in place for tomorrow. Looks to only be timing changes. Does this still interwork on a Sunday with there now being an hourly service?

Yes - standard patterns is they depart Boro having come in as a 28B and they then work onto 17s on their return. Weekday changes also see working changes with the early morning Stockton turn that previously ran only as far as Durham and then returned to Middlesbrough working right through to Newcastle.

There's an additional morning Middlesbrough-Framwellgate Moor journey and corresponding return on an afternoon. Also the school holiday gaps have been removed on the X2 (as we lost the schools that it interworked with).
It's been hourly on a Sunday since January.

Might be worth mentioning that our new 85/685 timetable is also introduced tomorrow, with service 185 Carlisle-Haltwhistle being Arrriva operated from Monday also!

Yes, the fifth and final one has now arrived. A complete set of registrations are given below:

NK64 EFM
NK64 EER
NK64 EES
NK64 EET
NK64 EEU

None have arrived with fleet numbers applied, but it's more than likely that the fleet numbers will match up with the order of the registrations shown above.
