Live rail websites

[benqprready]

Does anybody know whats the best live railway website as i noticed realtimetrains and opentraintimes are not always the best at cancelled trais ect

Depends what you mean by "cancelled trains" - do you mean showing whether
a passenger train is cancelled before it is due to set off from it's origin?

If so, that is very difficult to predict because even if the preceding
working in the diagram has been cancelled, another unit can often
be 'stepped up' to cover the rest of the diagram, so predicting
cancellations is almost impossible, unless a train has been officially
cancelled off in TRUST in advance...

just a website where it gives reasons for cancellations and also accurate live departure and arrival times also train tracking websites

I find realtraintimes is as accurate as the data it gets. Doesn't give reasons but I've rarely seen anything wrong.

If you want reasons, the desktop (NOT ie9) NRE site is probably best

Nothing is good on ie9

No problem, but you have asked the same question numerous times already:

And been given similar advice/suggestions each time.


Just sayin'
