## What is Now Departing?

Now Departing provides real-time departure board information for your commute or train journey within the UK. You can use it for general departure enquiries and to check and view the latest updates.

Make stations as favourites so they can be easily accessed when required.

You can view the detail of each journey, giving you a breakdown of the stops, train operator, the time of each stop and if available the departing platform.

It will tell you which services are on-time, which are delayed and which are cancelled  and any Service Update messages.
