Train tracking map for previous days?

[RiverDon]

There are quite a few apps that do live tracking of trains/headcodes on a map like Traksy and Open Train Times as it's happening right now but does anyone know if there are any that let you do a replay of a previous period?

I'd really like to double-check something that happened yesterday, but I can't find any site that lets you put in a date and time and see how things moved on the map.

Google hasn't been helpful in finding anything (or maybe I'm not using the right terms). Can anyone help please?

I'm only aware of https://vaildata.uk/maps/ecml?mode=live which covers between Kings Cross and Peterborough and goes back to February 2024.

Yes, unfortunately it's very time consuming to make maps as there is no official data on signalling layouts so I haven't expanded the map for over a year. However, I do have logs for the whole country for 90 days (only the map I have made is stored for longer) so I could try and take a look at the logs manually if you give me some details.

Thanks, that looks really good. It was something in Scotland I was interested in so it won't be on that site. Thanks for the offer but I wouldn't want to take up your time with something that's just for my curiosity.

The only systems that I am aware of that can do this are internal industry applications.

If you're specifically looking at a station, you can find the describer (2 characters) and the berth (4 characters) here then put them in the history page but if you want to look at the berths (each "section" on the maps is a berth) between locations their numbers aren't published by Network Rail, which is what makes making the maps difficult.

Thanks very much.
