Not a pub, but a cafe at Parbold, Lancs, has, or used to have, this facility.
It used http://nr.tellan.co.uk/departure/PBL/kiosk/black?lookaheadtime=90Works
I put this into my browser for my local station but it's no longer working. I'm getting Error 404 "The resource you are looking for might have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable."
Does anyone know what's happened?

Thank you.It looks like their URL structure changed. This still works:

Good to see a pub that's multi-use! Pubs should make more use of early morning commuters, I imagine first thing sausage/bacon sandwiches would go down a treat, especially when "delayed 15 mins" appears on the screen!The Railway pub across the road from Bromley Cross station has departure boards on the TV but they do mix it with other adverts for offers in the pub. Since reopening last year, on weekdays the pub opens at 6:30 as a waiting room selling coffee and sandwiches.
managed to co that for Bolton using http://javelin-webcis.co.uk/ although it's a white screen, how can I change it to blue? Thanks!It looks like their URL structure changed. This still works:

Also is there a way for this to show number of Carriages? "iris tiger" used to do so for Bolton and it was the most reliable system for this, far better than Journey Check, but now the link is broke (http://iris2.rail.co.uk/tiger/renderstaffsoad.asp?file=3031B2.xml) and I cant work out how to fix it.
Edit *Actually the website still works but Bolton has been removed from the list of stations available, hence the broken link.
Hi Chrisyd,
I've enabled train length as a detailed type option on Custom Board - https://live-departures.info/rail/custom/
When the system first went live there was only limited length information being published via the open data platforms so I kept the option hidden but there's a fair bit more coming through now (at time of writing approximately 30% of activated services are providing length data).
(if you just want to see train lengths on a personal device you can use the Darwin Console - https://live-departures.info/rail/dppc/Bolton/ - length where provided is shown in brackets next to the destination)
Is that the one with the train running above the bar that I saw years ago? Think it's the Railway or the Station!
Edit; Open Street map suggests "The Station Hotel".
No idea!!There used to be a train in the Whistle Stop Cafe - remember seeing that as a child when on our way to ASDA (the whole ground floor until the mid/late 1990s IIRC). Has that been moved to the pub?
There's a few McDonald's that have screens in them. One that springs to mind is Woking.McDonalds in the Fishergate centre in Preston has a screen with departures.
It's not a pub, but it did surprise me
It does, I was in there a few days ago. Unfortunately it only shows 4 or 5 trains at a time and includes terminating services. This can mean a service not appearing on the board until close to its departure at busy times of the day.I don't know if it is still there or not, but Wetherspoons The Knights Templar close to Briatol Temple Meads used to have one.
The Nor Loch is now known as The Beer House. No idea if they still have the departure times, one would assume they still do.The Nor Loch at Edinburgh Waverley has them.
I think there's a departure screen in the Weatherspoons attached to Liverpool Lime street? Can't remember for sure though.
Old Vic and StationThe one.across the road from Preston Station does, but I cant remember the name of it.
