''[[On Our Lines]]''' 1st [[SimSig]] [[SimSig:Sessions|Session]] took place on 2 March 2024. The Session used the [[SimSig:North Wales Coast|North Wales Coast]] and [[SimSig:Chester|Chester]]* simulations, alongside the [[SimSig:ROC|ROC]] system.

This is your 0700 update from Wales & Borders Route Control. Broadly, a good service has been reported on all routes this morning. However, delays of around 10-15 minutes are expected through [[Penmaenmawr]] later, due to a tamping machine - 6U19 - becoming defective following overnight works. Pilot working is expected to be implemented through the area, working reversibly over the Up Main. Down services will cross over at Penmaenmawr and back at Aber emergency ground frame. Mobile Operations Manager [[SimSig:Joan Jones|Joan Jones]] will be available from approximately 0715 to act as pilot.

Two railtours are expected in the area today: [[SimSig:Add-on timetables/The 5:08 Sunset|The 5:08 Sunset]] and [[SimSig:Add-on timetables/The St. Tudno Wanderer|The Saint Tudno Wanderer]]. Signallers are advised to check these timetables carefully, and ensure that they are routed in accordance with booked working. Other services intervals should be monitored and regulated as necessary.

In addition to MOM Jones, response staff are available at [[Llandudno Junction]], Holywell Junction and [[Chester]]. No spare rolling stock is available at [[Holyhead]], however Chester TMD has 1x [[class 175]] and 2x [[class 150]] units available as required. A spare [[class 22x|22x]] [[Voyager]] set is available at [[Crewe]]. All train crew depots report a good availability throughout the day, with suitable spare cover and no expected coverage issues.
