Crowd Sourcing


We now support crowd-sourcing of train travel information in addition to the operator-sourced data we get via the BBC.  To have your message re-tweeted add a star character after the name of the twitter account covering the relevant train company:

 

@[twitter account] * [Message to be re-tweeted]

 

e.g.

Retweeted: @uktrains * All trains out of Waterloo are cancelled at the moment. [star indicates message should be re-tweeted]

Retweeted: @uktr_ virgin * Virgin service earlier delays seem to have cleared. [star indicates message should be re-tweeted]

Retweeted: @uktr_firstcc* Services into Kings Cross delayed by 20mins. [space between twitter name and * is optional]

 

Not re-tweeted:  @uktr_londonmid Thanks very much for the warning of this morning's delays!  [no star included]

 

Your message will normally be re-tweeted within 5 minutes.

 

Note: DMs will not be re-tweeted.

 

As ever, feedback is welcomed to @bensmithuk.
