I accidentally managed to confirm that this is working OK. :-D

Looking good, thanks (and the 'download network map' works in Netsurf!)

Wow! The map opened in about 2 seconds in RiscOSM on my FAST machine.
Spectacular!

The network map is a pdf file, the station info map is the one RiscOSM
will use as the TrainTimes creates a gpx file and runs it when the map
option is clicked.

Thanks but NetSurf is not involved as it uses wget to download the pdf
file and the application runs the pdf file.

I'm having problems getting it to run. If I try to open !TrainTimes I get:

wget: Unrecognised option ™™ca™certificate=InetDBus ...
Usage...

I have downloaded the latest wget.

If I continue the window quits and I get "Handle is either illegal or has
been closed at line 1459."

There should be no question marks

If you send me the files the following files log and obey from
TrainTimes directory inside !Boot.scrap I can have a look, I guess that
you have either no CertData file or is out of date in
!Boot.Resources.!Internet.files if so the following link is what is
required:

<https://curl.haxx.se/ca/cacert.pem>

Just rename the file CertData and put it in !Boot.Resources.!Internet.files

If your one is out of date and you send it to me so that I can check
what to check for

Thanks.

Inside scrap there is a directory called TrainTimes inside that there
should be a file called log if you send it to me I will have a look to
see what is wrong.

They must of re done the api as it stopped working so that is the reason
for the new api provider.
