The advertised departure times of Passenger Trains in a number of instances are slightly earlier than the Service Book times, and the former must be used in all quotations to the public. The trains must also leave at the ADVERTISED time whenever practicable.

Every care must be taken to avoid running over PACKS OF HOUNDS, which during the hunting season may cross the line.
