About this data

Train times are genuinely live: National Rail's Darwin system tracks each train in real time and updates estimated times, platforms, delays and cancellations as they happen, refreshed here roughly every 90 seconds. Bus times are the published schedule in departure order, not adjusted for a bus running early or stuck in traffic - Bluestar/Unilink don't currently publish a stable, freely-reusable per-stop live-ETA feed the way National Rail does, so treat the bus board as "what's timetabled next" rather than "exactly when it'll arrive". For genuinely GPS-tracked bus positions on a map, see bustimes.org's own live map.
