Check Live Train Departures
Get real-time departure information for any UK station, including platform numbers, delays, and expected arrival times.
Plan a UK Rail Journey
Plan a train journey between any two UK stations, including connections, journey time, and line status.
Tool
Planning a rail journey with one or more changes is more complex than checking a single departure board. You need to know the fastest route, whether connections are tight enough to be reliable, and whether any lines on the route are currently disrupted — information that's spread across timetable planners, live boards, and status update pages.
Train Tracker's `journey_plan` and `line_status` skills return a complete journey plan from origin to destination — trains, connection times, total journey duration, and any current line disruptions affecting the route. You get a reliable plan and the information to adapt it if a line is disrupted.
Travellers, event organizers, and business professionals use this to plan multi-leg journeys, check whether a route is disrupted before leaving the house, and find the fastest connection without spending time in a timetable planner.
