Thank you for your reply. Please allow me to further refine my request to ask for data. It is common knowledge that 500 test movements were carried out for the new signal upgrade (Thales Seltrac system). The data I am after is on which days these 500 movements took place, for example, Weekend 10th - 11th August - 50 movements, Weekend 17th - 18th August 50 movements etc.
I believe this information has already been calculated in order for the social media team to derive the 500 test movement figure and publicly promote it, especially over Twitter. Therefore it would simply be the case of finding the work that has already been done and releasing it to me, which would fall within the 18-hour limit, or £450 cost.
