Tools

• bus_stop_departures

  Next buses from a bus stop anywhere in Great Britain. Takes a stop name with its town or area; many stops share a name across the country, so 'Trafalgar Square' alone can land in Greater Manchester while 'Trafalgar Square London' finds Charing Cross. A stop letter can follow, e.g. 'Trafalgar Square London stop X'. A stop's ATCO/NaPTAN code also works. Live predictions in London (TfL); elsewhere the timetable, so a 'scheduled' time is not a live estimate. Other matching stops are returned alongside.

• daily_performance

  TransitRadar's own record of one completed day on GB passenger rail: how many trains ran, how many were cancelled, the share of recorded arrivals within five minutes at their destination, the same share counting each cancellation as a failure, per-operator figures, and the commonest delay and cancellation reasons. Measured at the destination, so it is stricter than, and not comparable with, the industry's published PPM. Available from 2026-08-06 up to yesterday; where fewer than half of arrivals were recorded, no punctuality figure is given.

  shallow
• disruptions

  Current GB rail incidents and planned engineering work from National Rail's KnowledgeBase: what is affected, the operators, the dates and a link to National Rail's notice. Optionally filter by operator (name or two-letter code) or by any text, such as a station, line or reason.

  shallow
• find_train

  Search the GB rail timetable for specific trains. The query combines terms: an operator and a headcode ('LNER 1S09', 'EMR 1H26'), a time and a station ('12:19 from Corby' — matched within about ten minutes either side), two stations ('Corby to St Pancras', which also finds trains calling at both), or a planning ID / UID ('C12345', or its first few characters). A headcode alone is not unique: the same four characters run in several parts of the country at once, so results for one headcode can be different trains, told apart by origin and destination. Returns planning IDs to pass to get_train.

  shallow
• find_unit

  Look up a GB passenger train unit or carriage by the five- or six-digit number painted on it (e.g. '360107'): which service it is working now, the other services it is booked to work today, and the last calling point it was reported at. This comes from the operator's rolling-stock allocation, which is a plan and may be wrong during disruption. The position is the last calling point reported, not a live GPS fix — the train is somewhere beyond it.

  shallow
• get_train

  Full details of one train by its planning ID (UID, e.g. 'C04207'): every public calling point with booked, expected and actual times, platforms and per-stop cancellations, plus — for today's trains — where it was last reported and how late. A cancellation can apply to only some stops. 'lastReport' is the last place signalling or movement data placed the train, not a GPS position. Reasons are National Rail's own words.

  shallow
• plan_journey

  Plan a GB rail journey between two stations from the timetable, including changes: the next few ways to get there after a time, each with departure, arrival, number of changes and every train to catch with where to board and alight. This is the timetable, not live running; for live times on a direct train use station_departures with 'to', and for one train's progress use get_train with its planning ID.

  shallow
• search_stations

  Find GB railway stations by name or code. Returns each station's three-letter CRS code (e.g. KGX), its TIPLOC and whether it has step-free access. The CRS code is what the other station tools accept.

  shallow
• station_departures

  Live departure or arrival board for a GB railway station, from National Rail's Darwin feed: booked time, expected time, actual time once reported, platform, operator and any delay or cancellation reason. With 'to', only trains that also call at that station are listed, each with its booked, expected and actual time there: the live answer to 'next train from Bolton to Darwen'. On an arrivals board, 'to' is where the train came from. An expected time equal to the booked one means no revision has been published, which usually means running to plan. A missing expected time is not a statement that the train is on time. Reasons are National Rail's own wording.

  shallow
• station_info

  Details of a GB railway station: address, managing operator, facilities, step-free access, industry codes (CRS, TIPLOC, STANOX, NLC) and, where Network Rail publishes it, the live status of each public lift. Lift status is 'In service', 'Out of service' or 'Data not available'; the last means the status is not known, and Network Rail's wording for it advises checking before travel. A station with no lifts listed is not necessarily a station without lifts; it may not report live status yet.

  shallow
• train_history

  How one timetabled train has actually run over recent days, by its planning ID (from find_train, station_departures or get_train): each day's delay at its final destination, cancellations and any reason given, plus the share on time. Delay is measured where the train ends, not at any station along the way. History follows the planning ID, which changes when the timetable changes, so a newly timetabled train has little history; days the train did not run are simply absent.
