Christmas Holiday Timetables 2006-07

[BroadGauge]

I thought it was just the shops that put their Christmas decorations up ultra-early.

Not so, as Kastoria has now uploaded their Christmas Holiday Timetables for routes 475/6/501 for this year at http://www.kastoria.com.au/ka_xmas.html I don't know if printed versions are available yet. Christmas Holiday Times for Kastoria will operate between 25th December 2006 to 21 January 2007. I haven't double-checked what the changes are yet in comparison to the normal weekday timetable.

Lets post all Christmas holiday timetables in this one thread to save space

Dear All

Connex has announced the following in regards to their Summer Holiday Timetable 2006/2007. Less trains withdrawn, but will extend into the first few weeks of school term:

Train weekday timetable changes – Tuesday, 2 January until mid-February 2007
Date Published: Wednesday, 06 December 2006

Over the holiday period certain weekday train services will be withdrawn from 2 January 2007 with normal weekday services to resume during mid-February 2007.

Last January, 54 train services were withdrawn over a four week period for the 2006 Holiday Timetable. In 2007, only 17 services are being withdrawn over a six week period to accommodate the need for extra trains to run altered services during major works for the Middleborough Road Project.

For specific timetable information relating to your bus journey, use the Journey Planner or call Metlink on 131 638.

It appears that Route 767 will be running the normal timetable this year, despite the note regarding the Summer Timetable appearing in the 9/10/06 TT.

Also of interest is the 562, 569 & 794 are noted to be running on Christmas Day. 795 however is not.

Kind Regards
