I think you did well as I think this was a tough year and many freaked at the layout- it take a long time to find way around it and using an A3 diagram at my age is a strain on the eyes to read the small text!
137
You have listed some routes which I think are superfluous:
463A(S), C(S)
474A(S) B(S)
don't actually pass over any 137 end, so these may as well stay Normal even though the train in passing diagonally along the ladder.
Conversely I think you have missed:
465B(M)
484C(M/W/C).
I see on your note sheet that you have assumed what I take to be 461C(M) to be via 137R and 142R; since it obviously cannot take an impossible turn at the switch diamonds, nor go via the reversing line (no trapping from the sidings and dept for a start) I actually can't see that there would be any alternative.
138
Can't see much wrong with this one-
1. For some reason you haven't put a time for release on EJ occupancy after 494
2. Also it seems that you wrote CM when you meant EM in the list of tracks after 463C(M) and put a bogus CM in the list of tracks after 465C(M). Either my eyes or exam pressure getting to you.

I did find I got further in the time than with some other year's papers.
