Train Times from Dunbar

easyweb.co.uk

Photography and fine web writing since the last century

Given that we're going to be living round the corner from the station in Dunbar, and therefore somewhat dependent on trains up to Edinburgh, I thought it would be useful to find an online guide to train times.

Given that all attempts by UK train operating companies are dreadful, I was pretty chuffed to find that the German national rail site has UK train times. In English.

For the record, the times into and from Edinburgh are:

Route	Depart	Arrive
Dunbar->Edinburgh	07.44	08.11
Dunbar->Edinburgh	08.52	09.19
Edinburgh->Dunbar	16.55	17.20
Edinburgh->Dunbar	17.25	17.50
Edinburgh->Dunbar	17.55	17.20
Edinburgh->Dunbar	18.35	19.00
Edinburgh->Dunbar	18.55	19.20
Edinburgh->Dunbar	21.00	21.27

For the record, the problems with UK sites include:

thetrainline.com (you can't just look up times; you need to register and start the booking process)
gner.co.uk (Timetables are only available as static PDFs)
nationalrail.co.uk (take a look at this catalogue of errors, courtesy of elReg)
