3 is Parcels and priority ECS
5 is ECS

I doubt Railtours are given class 3 headcodes. The letter indication carried on passenger trains is used in the same manner for freight to indentify the destination area with the inter-regional codes being the same (S for Scottish region etc)

Afew example LTV Headcodes for service directions:

2R00 = Reading Stopping service
2N00 = Oxford Stopping service
2W00 = Slough to Windsor service
2S00 = Windsor to Slough service
1H48 = London to Henley on Thames service

etc

You will need to either...

Find someone with access to TRUST
Get hold of a current or past WTT
Join the many "Gen" sites on the internet
Join a site such as Freightmaster
