A timetable provides a way to operate a set of timed train movements, according to the fast clock. It is essentially a list of schedules to be run at certain times, with a defined repeat period (e.g. "repeat every hour").
Once the timetable is set up, it is initiated by starting the clock; simply click in the clock icon on the toolbar. It is stopped by clicking it again.
The clock can run faster than real time. To change the clock speed:
- Go into "edit" mode;
- select the clock window (if necessary view it by selecting it in the "window" menu)
- select "properties" from the "edit" menu
- From there you can set the current time, and the scale factor (i.e. how much faster than real time).
