Tourists never need be late again for a UK train
Friday 15 September 2006 by Edward.
You’re in a small English pub quaffing down a pint or two, but do you REALLY need to hurry to make the next train in time or can you relax and enjoy the brew? With the UK Live Trains Map you’ll know what to do.
The map shows all trains (red pins) approaching railway stations (yellow pins) in near real-time. Data is extracted from the UK train timetables website. The Live Trains Map is not an official UK rail site, but a really clever “scraping” exercise by Matthew Somerville.
