Useful Railway Related Websites

[E_Reeves]

Hi all,

I'd like to make a thread with a list of useful railway websites (for tracking, maps, timetables etc.)

You have the obvious ones:
RealTime Trains: http://realtimetrains.co.uk
Open Train Times: http://opentraintimes.com

For loco/unit sightings and tracking I like to use http://trainlogger.co.uk

I also find http://raildar.co.uk useful for online junction maps and some live maps, similar to OTT.

Anybody got any more to add?

Thanks

There was a website which I can't remember the name of which was either like a large sectional appendix or showing signal sections. You can just drag it around to get to where you want rather than have separate pages.

Does anyone have any ideas what it could be?

I also like Leighton Logs with its south section of the WCML focus:

I find national rail enquiries the best

I've had a quick look at this and it seems pretty useful. More maps that OTT, but some block locations and signals are incorrect/not working.
