Transport For Wales Launches New Live Map That Shows Passengers Where Their Train Is
A brand new live digital map has been launched showing customers exactly where their train is. Launched by Transport for Wales, the map has been described as "fantastic" by rail bosses. It shows the location of every TfW train and allows customers to view a train's journey in real time and see the expected arrival time at each station on its route. Passengers can also see what that delay might mean for arrival times at stations further down the line. It has been developed by rail technology innovator, Signalbox, using live data to estimate the location of trains as they pass key points on the tracks. Later this year, the technology will incorporate GPS data from trains to provide an even more accurate picture of where the train is, according to Transport for Wales.
