Does anyone know why Tubetrack (see

displaying either National Rail or Dublin DART departures for the
past few days?
For National Rail, I believe it picked up its information from the
National Rail website (
http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/
). This has
had a major update recently, so maybe Tubetrack can't see the data
it needs anymore.
I didn't think the URLs had changed much if at all. My bookmarks still
seem to work.

I had a look at Tubetrack (Northern Line) at about 01:00 this morning. It
was showing weird things. For some reason it was showing trains as if they
were continuing past their destination. When at Finchley Central, a
Highgate stabler was being shown on the describer at Camden Town and
other stations, but suddenly disappeared when the train reached East
Finchley. Likewise Golders Green stablers were being shown in the same way
when they were between Edgware and GG, then disappearing at GG.
NB describers at the stations I looked at south of Kennington were showing
a Morden description, with the actual location of the train being shown as
somewhere NB (i.e. Angel). I assume these were the last NB trains that
had passed through the stations ages ago - albeit probably late after last
nights Edgware branch shutdown.
It would be nice if they could have Trackernet on the internet, as that
would give an overall picture. However I suppose that would take up too
much bandwidth / isn't technically feasible.
