Network Rail open data feeds

The feeds describe Great Britain's rail network at cadences ranging from real time to twice yearly. Movement, train-describer and very-short-term-plan feeds update in real time; schedules and infrastructure update nightly, performance once per minute, speed restrictions weekly, locations and SMART monthly, and BPLAN twice yearly. Access is first-come, first-served and the provider currently limits it to 1,000 users.
