    Also, anyone noticed how the pretty adverts cover text in some places?

    There is an example here.

    Ironic that this example is a FAQ page... i.e. people go there to get help and can easily get the wrong information.

    You can no longer use the site to look up live arrivals for a station and then click through to the train to check on its progress. I used to use this all the time when onboard a long train to get live updates on when we were going to stop where - so I could tell the person at the other end if we were running late or whatever. Can't do that now.

    RUBBISH!!!

    Works fine for me.

    Just search for arrivals at the trains final destination station then click 'details' next to the right train.
  • The new National Rail Enquiries website is a backward step (probably cost a lot of public money) - its slow to respond/use and is full of useless adverts. Why do organisations like this repeatedly fix things that aren't broken - they invariably create more problems.
