    Does Real Time Trains cover trains creeping through stations?

    The off route timing data is available so I guess in theory yes. The railways internal systems don't manage it very well though so I can't imagine it is an easy task!

    West Yorkshire off-peak bus and train Daysaver

    Brave suggestion but assuming you're on the 1833 from Kings X the train dwells in Leeds for 14 minutes, if you're at the North end you'd have ample time to go through the barriers and to the ticket office....
