Website - tells you what trains are coming?
Discussion
Last year sometime, for the purposes of looking at some trains with my kids, I found a website that tells you everything that's coming - passenger, freight, engineer trains etc etc - all you have to do is put in the location and date.
Wanted to use it again, for same reason, now can't find it despite extensive google searches, and I can't remember exactly what it's called.
Anyone know?
TIA

That's the one!Many thanks.
You could try:
www.opentraintimes.com/maps
The maps scroll from left to right on the screen.
This shows various routes (or parts of) around the UK as a diagrammatic map (similar to what is in signalboxes) which you can see the trains moving along the tracks from signal to signal. Also shows signal aspects, but only as green for proceed and red for stop-whilst the signalling nsystem may in fact be 3 or 4 aspect, gives you an idea though.
I believe you can click on the train ID (headcode) and see its running information, be aware that there may be more than train running on headcode, so it could be wrong. In collaboration with realtime trains you've got a good idea of what's going on.
