I've been asked to produce a series of Excel spreadsheets with train timetable information for a number of National Rail (London only) routes. Besides using the Network Rail journey planner and manually typing/pasting them in, is there any way of getting this information into Excel? It's getting a bit complicated and time consuming! Thanks, David. This is also something I've wondered. I don't suppose it's published in XML, CSV (anything!) anywhere? It'd be quite nice to have this sort of thing available for unconnected PDAs, smartphones etc. I wonder who "owns" the information, the TOCs, National Rail etc? |

Try ATOC. Discussions about how to hack a PDF to Excel then apply some god awful VB to it aside though, the point I'm making is that this information should be made available free of charge in a malleable format (e.g. XML, or something), hence my question about ownership. Well, when I say "should", perhaps what I mean is "can't see any reason why not given that they provide glossy leaflets with the data on". Ultimately taking this long way round is a maintainability nightmare and is subject to change when the timetables are changed. |
