Quick question: I recall a website being mentioned on the forum recently which has live train running information for the past seven days. Does anyone remember what it was by chance?

I need some of the information from the last few days for my journey logs and would rather not bother someone with TRUST access.

You could try raildar.co.uk ; it goes back a couple of months but does seem to have some trouble showing VAR workings.

Thanks.

No, I don't need unit numbers.

I did think it might be raildar, but when I tried it earlier today, it seemed to experience problems displaying historic data.

Edit:

I note that the calendar wasn't showing earlier today when an individual service was selected. It does now. :)

OpenTrainTimes will have historical service going back at least a week, possibly longer. I'm near the end of coding the real-time parts of it now.

The problem with RTT is that it only goes back about 26ish hours instead of the "last few days" the OP needs.

Great news! Looking forward to it ;)

It goes back around 7 days or a little longer, but you need to select a train within the last 24 hours and then change the date by directly substituting it in the URL, or else open the page relating to the specific train within 24 hours of it running and then keep it open or bookmark it.

Goes back 20 days.

Some interesting revelations here I must admit. :)
