I dunno, they might see their fleet reliability go up massively without you!

Re: Random Transport Chatter
A few week ago Transport for London had a hack of some kind, they found the hacker, a 17-year-old male was arrested for doing it, I guess he got bored or something.
Whilst little data was stolen (some were, you may have got an email about it if you have an account with TfL or Oyster).
Since that hack they have closed off a lot of their APIs.
Unfortunately that means my London Underground traintrackr is only displaying Elizabeth Line & Docklands Light Railway (DLR) services. Little odd to see it so dark in central London.
It also means my full size Departure Board (I'm bad with money ok) is only doing regular railway stations.
TfL have given no data regarding the unlocking of the API. My little signature for journeys below has no access to Tube data either, and honestly that signature stuff is just endpoint after endpoint and scraping my semi-realtime location data from my phones & tablet. Thankfully I'm not going to London anytime soon I think.
