Re: [Talk-GB] UK Open Data User Group asks what data do you want
The sectional appendices have been fairly recently made available as PDFs on the Network Rail website (http://www.networkrail.co.uk/aspx/10563.aspx - see links on right hand side of page) but it doesn't say anything on that page about them being open data.

PDF isn't necessarily the best format if you want to process the data with some other program. It's great for presentation, but as soon as you want to push it around and mix it with things, and do interesting things it's much less useful.

It's not geocoded, so it'll need human interpretation.
