Sequence errors in Transport for NSW timetables

[Fleet Lists]

Archived copy of the previous M91 timetable

And the current TSA one

The 15.17 seems to have the same split and I cant see any differences in the sequence.
I know there have been some sequence problems in some timetables but I cant see any here.

Getting totally off topic but here is a recent archived route 7 timetable which contains the sequence errors

but the latest one has been corrected so it appears that they have fixed the sequence error which was causing a problem in July.

That's a Hastus issue.

If you aren't careful it can default to sorting by trip starting time regardless of starting location.

Thanks for that explanation, that explains what I was seeing. Appreciated.

I have split this off from the new contracts thread as it is getting off subject and there could be more replies which would not be relevant to the original subject.
I also found this problem with route M92 where the 17th July 2023version had this error when it was first issued but without being reissued, the version created on 6 August did not have the problem.

So it appears as though the TfNSW timetable software has a similar problem to Hastus. I am open to correction on this.

This isn't a sequence error, but thought I'd pop it in this thread anyway.

I recall previously if a route number was going to operate to a significantly changed path (requiring a new title/description) from a certain date, and the operator remained the same, there would be a single link page on transportnsw.info with two distinct PDF links - each with their own title (the current route and the new route). These would appear as two separate boxes above the map/stops.

This doesn't appear to be in place at the moment, for example Griffith Route 943:

https://transportnsw.info/routes/detail ... /943/60943

There are currently two PDF links, one for current and one valid from 18th September. The issue is both retain the title "Bilbul to Griffith", including in the PDFs themselves, despite the fact the 943 goes nowhere near Bilbul after the 18th.

I wonder if there is an issue in the software now preventing two different titles. I'm sure I can find an example of the old method with two titles on the Internet Archive with some time.
