LIVE UK Train times - Is there a site which gives arrival/departure times showing delayed/cancelled trains?

Question

There is one for the London Underground which takes its feed from the display screens you see in the station. My train is just five minutes after I finish work, so it is always a bit hit and miss if I get it. If I knew it was going to be delayed then I would not bother to run!

Thanks

Answer 1

Yes the web address is

http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/

the live arrival/departure board is on the right hand side. However it doesnt always show you whether trains are delayed as that depends on whether the person in charge of updating the train times can be bothered to change the times. The other week the boards in Leeds train station were telling me my train was on time, 20 minutes after it was due to leave.

Answer 2

In addition to the national rail live station departure information - which is always a fun way to waste an hour or so - the website of your train operating company should give fairly up to date information. For example. the web page of one of my local companies, Southern tells me, for example, that at the moment trains between Horsham and Billingshurst  are being delayed by 15 minutes due to signalling problems and that the 18.17 to Eastbourne and 18.21 to Portsmouth are both running late and will not stop at Clapham Junction due, in both  cases, to the illness of a passenger (the same one I wonder?) And there is loads more information about current services.
