I thought I'd take the opportunity to put together a website representation of these new Rail Clocks which launched yesterday.

railclock.davwheat.dev

Source code (MIT): github.com/davwheat/rai...

And, don't worry, it does have the special flourish every 12 hours!

We're delighted to announce support for allocations in the latest version of our Android app (within Live Times), available now! This builds on top of recently opened up Gemini data.

We'd like to thank @realtimetrains.co.uk for paving the way for transparency when it comes to unit allocations.

Didn't think to cross post this, but it's been done for me now!

@bahn.de Hi, I have some seat reservations on a service that was cancelled yesterday.

The online compensation page keeps telling me to wait until after departure, despite that being 24h ago. Can I get a refund for the reservations another way?
