There’s been a few changes and updates to Realtime Trains today.
Most of the changes are small incremental changes and fixes but the major one fixes an issue with trains incorrectly reporting and overwriting in the London Bridge area.
Changes will all be in effect immediately with the exception of the distance engine which affect services from Tuesday onwards.
