Hi Has anyone ever approached Virgin to get GPS traces from their trains? Would it be worth asking or do we have enough coverage? Richard Baker [1] is "General Manager for Virgin Trains Liverpool, N Wales & Chester to London" and is happy to receive emails so if we think it's worth asking I will go ahead and do so. I just asked him about getting the trains to update http://mapme.at/ with their current positions and he's just told me it would be too much work, but supplying us with a day's worth of existing traces (perhaps with the time "anonymised") should be less effort than the constantly updated stream I was originally asking for.
Anyway, opinions appreciated. John [1] - http://twitter.com/richard_baker _______________________________________________ Talk-GB mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk-gb
