Headway Sheet

The following changes have been made to the Headway Sheet :

• Added the following new parameters:
  • Show Comments - If selected, the comments associated with the trips in the headway are shown at the bottom of the report.
  • Empty Trip Times Character Fill - Allows you to set the character that is shown in the report if there are no trip times instead of an empty field, for example, a dash (-) . In this case, dashes are shown in the grid if there are no trip times.
  • Show Run, Pattern, Block column on Right - If selected, the Run, Pattern, and Block columns that appear on the leftmost part of the grid also appear on the rightmost part of the grid.
  • Show Exceptions- Allows you to choose whether you want to show Exceptions associated with the trips. You can choose where they are to be shown in the report with the following options:
    • Do Not Show
    • Left Margin Only
    • Both Margins
  • Show Notes on Right- If selected, the Notes column is shown on the right side of the grid.
  • Show Vehicle Type - Controls where the vehicle type information is shown in the Headway Sheet. If selected, users can choose from the following options:
    1. None - If selected, no vehicle type information is included in the report. This is the default.
    2. Left Margin Only - If selected, the vehicle type information is shown on the left section of the report. The Vehicle Type column is shown between the Exc (Exceptions) column (if shown) or the Run column and the Garage From column.
    3. Both Margins - If selected, the vehicle type information is shown on the left and right sections of the report. In the left section, the Vehicle Type column is shown between the Exc (Exceptions) column (if shown) or the Run column (if Exc column is not shown) and the Garage From column. In the right section, the column is shown after the In Line column.
• Added the following new column:
  • Exceptions - Shows the Exception Abbrs of exception trips. The column is not shown if there are no exception trips.
• The values of a node are merged if the node appears consecutively in the same route and no trip uses the node twice in a row.
• To improve readability of the report, the following changes have been added:
  • Vertical lines (separators) between timepoints and other trip data.
  • The Pattern and Block columns are repeated before the last set of columns in a multi-page report.

Hours and Miles Report

• A new parameter, Interline Next has been added. If selected, an Interline deadhead is added after the pull-out/before the pull-in. It occurs between different nodes.
