A couple of examples mentioned, the 57 timetable shows the whole route and the 51 shows the whole timetable including the GNE evening journeys.

That must've changed relatively recently as last time I looked the timetables were all split by operator so stuff like the 29 you'd end up with 3 timetables. Complicated as an understatement.

You can tell some of the foreign users who aren't familiar much with the area use google maps because you'll see them following it to the letter which isn't always the best way to get somewhere.

Aye hopeless, I've found the same with Traveline aswell which is even worse, the idea of walking 200m is just alien and it comes up with some rather random routes as a result changing in totally inappropriate places.

Tbf it's quite an increase from now they've only got 35 operational units and that's when they're all on the tracks which they're not. Believe the current full daytime units is only 27 units or so, so there's a very lot of slack. If they can't operate that (will go upto 34 or so with the timetable increase) then there's something very wrong.

Mind hopefully the launch goes better than the Class 777's in Liverpool which are the same train thereabouts and having a bad time blighted with problems.
