All,

It looks like there was a problem with CIF generation last night - I haven’t received an updated file from either Network Rail or RDG overnight.

As a result, I’m expecting there will be no CIF or JSON schedule file update on NROD - but it’s likely to arrive in the coming hours, given the substantial changes to the timetable.

I’ve logged a call with Network Rail and I’ll let you know the state of play as and when I hear back.

Best wishes,


Peter

Hi Phil

I've just heard back that it was a failure affecting transmission of CIFs for a fairly small number of users - which explains why RDG and I never received any files, but CACI did.
