Introduction

All trains are identified with a train reporting number to identify the individual service. It consists of:

a single-digit number to indicate the type (class) of the train
a letter to indicate the destination area
a two-digit number to identify the individual train, or route

The numbers for the train classes apply to all regions, however the destination area codes and the individual train numbers are specific to the region or area. The codes used for this meeting are described in the following paragraphs.
