Hi All,

Is there a cross reference available for the station name codes used in Open LDBWS for London Underground services?

They have a crs value of "???" and a capitalised code for the station name such as EPUTNEY (East Putney) and WDNPK (Wimbledon Park).

PHP stdClass Object dump of a GetDepBoardWithDetails response showing such a service at the end of this post.

National Rail Enquiries have the names resolved;

http://ojp.nationalrail.co.uk/service/ldbboard/dep/WIM

But most sites, including many TOCs official sites are just showing the codes e.g;

http://www.thameslinkrailway.com/your-journey/live-travel-info/WIM/departures/

Thanks!

Both of those codes are listed here: http://trains.barrycarlyon.co.uk/data/locations/

There's even an SQL dump, if you want a machine readable version.

Thanks Mike!

I only want to take data from official sources but your link revealed the TIPLOC association and from that I have located a usable cross-reference within the ATOC timetable dataset.

Cheers,
