Open Rail Data

If all goes well my plan is to show something shiny and all the cloud stuff grinding away in the background keeping it all in check. Essentially there are four feeds/sets of data:

  • The station board feed (which I've wrapped and cleaned up a bit naming wise) which is a pull service.
  • Train movements, a push feed which contains messages about train 'activations' 'movements' and 'cancellations'. http://nrodwiki.rockshore.net/index.php/Train_Movements
  • The Train Describer, another push feed for (what I think is the awesome stuff) real time signal changes, points changes and route setting for trains. http://nrodwiki. rockshore.net/index.php/TD
  • The schedule information. Which 2 and 3 depend on for information on the train timing and details.
