Wakeful

I work on the railway; say hello if you see me! 'Wakeful' is the home of any photographs I take.

For one weekend only, the @EnterpriseTrain served Belfast's Great Victoria Street station. The station is *thought* to be closing in May.

@RailDepartures Thanks!

[UK Departure Boards @RailDepartures]

New Feature: Northern Ireland Railway Departures Now Live!

We’re excited to share a brand-new feature with the UKDB community…live departure boards for Translink NI Railways are now fully supported!

For the uninitiated, stations across Northern Ireland use a different data feed from the rest of the UK’s National Rail network, which meant they’ve been missing from our boards… until now. After a bit of behind-the-scenes magic, we’ve integrated this separate Translink feed into the UK Departure Boards system.

Huge, huge thanks to the @Translink_NI staff at the DerryLondonderry train station who have kept us right and helped us to get home after the fires at Coleraine train station caused cancellations.
