After four years of continuous development and innovation, we present the final feature update to trainslive.uk.
The original version launched after significant development time. Simple but effective - you could view live departures. Though functional, the UI felt outdated even at launch.
An ambitious attempt to modernise the UI that didn't go to plan. Full of bugs, horrible interface, and ultimately never finished. Sometimes you need to fail to learn what works.
Built from the ground up with lessons learned. Each version brought meaningful improvements:
The final chapter. Five comprehensive new features that complete the vision. From here on, no more new features will be added - only maintenance where required.
A real-time intelligence network where passengers share critical information about travel conditions, safety concerns, and service disruptions. Creating a safer, more informed travel experience for everyone.

v3.10 marks the end of active feature development
After four years, trainslive.uk has evolved into exactly what was envisioned - a comprehensive railway information platform.
To everyone who has used, shared, and supported trainslive.uk over the past four years - thank you. This journey from a simple departures board to a comprehensive railway platform wouldn't have been possible without you.
"The best way to end is to end well. trainslive.uk v3.10 represents not just the final update, but the completion of a vision four years in the making."
- Rick from the trainslive.uk team
