Thanks to grah2702's link I've found a couple of great cams. The first one sits over the throat of Prague station and also includes the audio from the station announcements. It's a busy station and there's also English announcements. Plenty of Pendolinos too.

http://www.webcamsue.nl/czech/slow6train.html


This second cam is on a tram that travels the roads of Prague. The quality is amazing and I'm impressed with the tram network around the city. I've been 'riding' the tram for a week now and even been doing a bit of tramspotting on my journeys around Prague. I wish there was something similar in the UK where we can follow a train or bus ride around our network.

Also this gives the platform numbers

I'm not quite sure. I've been 'riding' the tram and getting to know the route and locations and it seems to take the same route most of the time but I've also noticed routes that are unfamiliar. There's an option to also view the tram's route by GPS on a Google street map...

I have watched it on and off for two weeks now and it has worked two if not three routes
I have caught it at at least four different turn round end of route points so at least two routes.

grah 2702: I used Firefox but could not get Railcam NL. Can you tell me how to do this? Railcam NL did not work on IE11 and Google Chrome.

Webcam for the WSR are located at:

Blue Anchor - http://www.wsr.org.uk/r-cam-ba1.htm

Minehead Signalbox (Platforms) - http://www.wsr.org.uk/r-cam-md1.htm

Minehead Signalbox (Seaward Way X-ing) - http://www.wsr.org.uk/r-cam-md2.htm

Crowcombe Heathfield (Very stuttery due to connection) - http://www.wsr.org.uk/r-cam-ch1.htm

Bishops Lydeard - http://www.wsr.org.uk/r-cam-bl2.htm

Minehead, Blue Anchor & Bishops Lydeard are all pretty good quality, although all can suffer from the odd stutter and Blue Anchor/Crowcombe don't have sound.

No, Its a free week to mark the Salty Cottage Cam being Introduced, then you have to pay.

Are you sure? Its still free now. I thought that the only one you had to pay for was the San Remo Cam, which looks in the direction of Dawlish Warren and is by far the best one.

Free York cam has gone to supporters only after people broadcast the stream on Youtube to make money
