Train service

Every train gets its own page

Search above for a headcode (the four-character code like 1A24 that identifies a train on the network), a planning ID, or simply where a train starts and ends. Every service on the timetable has a page here, and every page has an address you can bookmark or send to someone.

• The booked timetable — every calling point with its scheduled times and platform, for any date the timetable covers. Not just today: a train running next week has a page before it has ever moved.
• Live times on top of it, once the train is running: expected and actual times at each stop, platform changes, and the operator's own reason when it is delayed or cancelled.
• The route on a map, drawn along the track the train actually takes rather than a straight line between stations.
• A detailed view for the passing timing points — the junctions and loops a train runs through without stopping, which is where most of what happens to a train actually happens.

Looking for what is leaving a station in the next hour instead? Use the departure boards, and click any train there to land back here. To follow a journey you are actually making, track a train. For what headcodes and planning IDs mean, see the FAQ.
