VR Working Time-Tables
Working Time - Tables, (WTT) were produced for the guidance of employees, Drivers, Guards, Signalmen, Train Controllers etc. They not only contained the actual timetables for all services on the line but where crosses were schedule. They described the safe working system in use on every section of track. They also contained vital information about how much tonnage a given loco could haul over different sections of track, the time allowed between station with various trains and the allowable speeds over each section of track. The Addenda gave very specific information about the various rolling stock, their carrying capacity, max speeds etc.
