SP Steve Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 For a litle bit of fun then visit: http://traintimes.org.uk:81/map/tube/ The map shows the progress (or otherwise) of the services around the capital in near real time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JZjr Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Looks like a very interesting idea! Shame I cannot look at it right now as I am on an iPod, will defiantly be something I look at when I get home tomorrow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horsetan Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 There is one for the Swiss rail network. It seems to work better, not surprisingly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trisonic Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Fascinating! One of the trains seems to have got lost and was last seen by me running through Pinner Park.... Best, Pete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edwin_m Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Shame you can't use it on the Underground where there's no reception. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Hamblin Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 LU use a similar system called TrackerNet, which gives the detail down to line level. I assume this uses a similar data source. Regards, Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Engineer_London Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Thanks for posting this - most interesting. Looking at the developer's notes and how it works, I can confirm the data comes from LU's Trackernet. Compared to the live railway, it seems to be about 4-5 minutes in delay, and in some instances it seems to leave out some trains. Nevertheless very good and I'll watch it develop - the shape of things to come.
