Downtime

Sorry for the downtime - the domain expired without me realising, whoops!

Add to calendar

I’ve added “Add to calendar” links on results pages, which will hopefully import into your calendar program, with separate entries for different legs of the journey.

Bookmarkable URLs

I've added bookmarkable timetable URLs for quick lookups. For example, http://traintimes.org.uk /manchester /edinburgh will give you the next trains from Manchester to Edinburgh. Adding a time, like http://traintimes.org.uk /cardiff /birmingham /8:00, gives you the timetable starting from there.

A full return journey is of the form http://traintimes.org.uk /london /leeds /10:00 /next-tuesday /16:00 /next-wednesday.

The time is departure time by default; add an “a” at the end for arrival time, or use “first” or “last” for first or last trains. For example, http://traintimes.org.uk /london /glasgow /first /tomorrow or http://traintimes.org.uk /sheffield /liverpool /11:00a.

You can put “/fares” at the end of any bookmarkable URL to go directly to the fares page for that journey. This will be slower than the non-fares lookup. For example http://traintimes.org.uk/cardiff/bristol/fares.

“/changes=N” at the end of a bookmarkable URL will restrict the results to N changes maximum, e.g. http://traintimes.org.uk /birmingham /manchester /changes=0.
