New lines include the Isle of Wight and Stranraer. The Stranraer line is a bit quiet, but I could watch the IoW line for hours. A Traksy subscription is probably cheaper than a holiday, and comes with minimal danger of your feet getting covered in itchy wet sand.

Unit allocations are now available for almost all trains on the new site. The unit numbers are also clickable (or you can enter a unit number in the search bar), to see details of the unit, and all the services it is allocated to today

And finally, some accessibility changes for people who have their phones zoomed in a bit. More of the views can now break onto multiple lines if they need to. The maps will also zoom in a bit if you are short of vertical space, so that you can scroll horizontally and vertically 3/3

More changes: For people who like the details, we now have scheduling allowances and actions ("Train reverses", "Carriages Added/Removed"). Still to come: Cancellations, reinstatements and changes like switches from diesel to electric mode. 1/3

The timetables are now also clickable on stations page, but it looks the same as the journey page, so heres the info tab, illustrating the much-clearer tab navigation, and the larger space available to read everything in. That's it for now. More changes coming soon. 4/4

There are some experimental new vertical-scrolling maps on the new site. Not currently searchable, but subscribers can give them a try at traksy.uk/new/?id=227 and for phones at traksy.uk/new/?id=2271 Good to know if people like/hate the idea, how they could be better, and whether there are bugs

We are now showing allocation information for C2C (trains from Fenchurch Street to Southend) live on the new site. The information updates every couple of hours, and it's a bit experimental while we iron out bugs over the next few days.

Extended berths are on the new site for Reading, Paddington, Euston, Kings Cross, Victoria, Cannon St, Charing Cross, London Bridge, Piccadilly, Leeds and more. I really like them - hope you do too. (unfortunately they aren't working on the old site, so they've been removed there for now) 4/4
