New ETAs

[Christopher J]

Did anybody ever have a fiddle around with the Bakerloo or Jubilee ETAs on www.tfl.gov.uk/tube/ ?

I've just taken another look and noticed that they've now installed the Victoria and Northern Lines to their system.

I don't know who would find those useful , someone who lives half an hour away from a station 'Oh only 1 minute to arrival! must dash!'

I found this little toy tucked away in the depths of the world wide web the other day:

Living three minutes' walk from Tower Gateway DLR, it actually comes in vaguely useful, especially today when it was raining; shaved off precious minutes of standing about in the rain, all courtesy of this download!

Admittedly, the tube real time info may not be quite so useful to most, but for those tucked away in leafy surburbia, the National Rail options could prove rather useful one can only assume. You can of course access all the original TFL website real time info via. WAP technology too on your mobile ~ I've found it useful on more than one occasion. You still can't beat the fact that if you work in Canada Square in the Wharf, whilst descending rapidly to the shopping centre down below, that the lifts have ETA software installed and you know whether to "peg it" down to the platforms or enjoy a leisurely stroll to the DLR station. God bless technology eh?! So in summary, it 'aint all that bad, knowledge is power after all (as a wise man once said...)

That works off the TFL ETA site.
