Topic starter

Does anyone know of an app or website that shows either the movement of freight trains or the movement of any train across a specific part of track?
Basically, I have a viaduct near me that’s freight only and I’d like to be able to find out when a train is likely to cross it.

Don't do it.

You'll start building your days around the movement times, creating spreadsheets and researching who or what the diesels are named after. 😉

Realtime trains is good, head for the detailed section for freight. I use it for keeping an eye on my trains, nowt worse than not checking before you leave the house and you get to the start point to find the blimmin' thing is 2 hours late 🙄

The detailed section of realtime also gives more location options so if the specific location that you're after isn't there you may have to play around with it a bit, it helps to know your junctions if it's on a goods only line.
