Title: National Rail Traintracker
Post by dellyg on Feb 22^nd, 2007 at 10:06am

Hi there, does anyone have the geographical number for the railway info line 'traintacker' please? It's very useful to use and accurate up to the minute, but costs a fortune!!
The current number is: 0871 2004950.
Before anyone says I haven't checked-I went thru all the suggested procedures with google, and it returned results with the same number. I even checked the ATOC website, which is quite happy to publicise the 10p a minute charge, but no alternative number. Just wondered, as somone had found the National Rail Enquiries geo number, whether it'd be the same, or similar?
If anyone could find this, I would be most grateful.
Adele

The thread for National Rail Enquiries is here.

Unfortunately in this country you are expected to pay a fortune for information like this. Whilst a call from a landline will typically be 10p/min, calls from mobiles will be at least two or three times that.

I doubt that we'll find an alternative. If it's live departures and timetables whilst you're out and about, have you tried National Rail's WAP site?

Hi People,

I am new to the forum.

Just wanted to share that +44(0)20 7278 5240 for National Rail Enquires works FINE by using CALLING CARD. I just got the information by speaking to an adviser 5 minutes ago.

The steps i followed:
1) Dial the calling card number.
2) Enter the pin
3) When asked - enter 0044 207 278 5240 ---and bingo...!
I had 16p balance on my calling card - after a 5 minute call it was 12p - so its 4p for 5 mins which is not bad at all.

Good luck
