Thank you for your letter
of
the 17th June requesting further information from Netw ork Rail on
(i) the capacity available on the Network for the paths OB Schenker have identified to and
from the port and (ii) a general commentary on the available capacity for services to and from
the port.
DB Schenker detailed paths
We have rev iewed the paths that DB Schenker have identified on the graph on the basis of
the times supplied in the DB Schenker presentation (slide entitled 'Detailed Times on the
Felixstowe Branch') included in the Appeal documentation for both the May 2010 Working
Timetable and also the December 2010 Working Timetable which has recen tly been offered
to Train Operators. The DBS proposed paths are;
• Inbound path Ipswich 12.59 Felixstowe South 14.14
• Outbound path Felixstowe South 18.56 Ipswich 19.47
In respect of the May 2010 Wo
rking
T
imetable
the situation can be summarised as ;
Inbound path -The identified path into Felixstowe is foul with 4L55 (Freightliner path) which
is in very similar timing s. That train has an East Suffol k line passenger service in front and is
followed by 4L89 (Freightliner Path). There is not capacity on the network for the path as
suggested.
