Booked platforms by departure time

Showing the next 14 departures from now.
All 14 departures shown have a booked platform. A booked platform is a plan from the timetable, never a live platform.

This is not a complete weekly timetable. These plans do not establish usual platforms or day-to-day stability. Booked platforms may change. An empty live board does not rule out later trains.

How does the board work?
The board below shows reported platforms separately from the timetable. A booked platform is a plan, not a promise. Check the station board and listen for announcements before boarding. Choose a train to keep its page open; only a fresh reported platform turns that screen white.
How early will the platform be announced?
Board observation times record data checks, not platform announcement times. We do not publish platform release-time statistics or accuracy percentages. Read how the data and freshness labels work.
