Sorry for not being more specific. I was really wondering if the departure times are given with seconds and not only minutes. Is that the case? And does "(1/2)" really mean ":30"?

No, the times in the WTT are only given to the nearest half minute. The times in the Journey Planner seem to match the WTT exactly, but with all times rounded to the nearest minute.

yes the (1/2) was meant to mean :30 -- i couldn't think how to write it.
i did see a few (3/4) in the WTT.

That makes perfect sense. I noticed in the BVE simulators that time tables were given down to 15s resolution.
Thanks

Personally, even if they are the same as JP, it would be good to have the WTTs simply for the reason that I don't have to be connected to a computer to do planning etc.,
Any idea when the new ones come out?

I also like Jonny applied for the WTT through the link, it took a little longer for mine about a week, but still no doubting it does indeed work.
It is easier to look at timings for a route than on JP and alot less tedious as well.

I applied through the link on Thursday, so hopefully I'll be getting mine soon enough!

I would think that you probably could get a copy through the FOIA because it has effect over the UK Entity (in this case TfL).
Likewise the online form does have a 'Country' field.
The only thing they might request is that you pay for the postage - which they are within their right to do.

Mine came through in the post today... £12 postage!!!!
Did everyone who got them get photocopies, or am I special?

Looks like there getting a little sick of people asking. I got photocopies ringbound. But with no postage costs.

How do you mean no postage costs?

i got photocopies not ringbound, just bound with elastic bands, and no postage costs.
I wouldn't like to put words into TC's mouth but I don't know how often he comes on here so I'll tell you for him that he got ringbound photocopies for free.

Hopefully they will decide to just put the timetables on their website so they can save themselves the bother of sending out umpteen copies to everybody.

Yeah, I got mine for free and ringbound - I meant that it cost them £12 to post them!! Sorry for the misunderstanding!
Just got a quick query for those of you that have them... does West Harrow actually appear in the Metropolitan WTT? Cos I can't find it!!
