thanks wizbowes.
would be nice to have access to API's with live departure info.
Not sure if its so relevant for underground trains but certainly helps for national rail.
Do you know of any web api's that provide national rail routing in XML/HTML/JSON/whatever ouput ?

Im looking to integrate even bus/air travel into this, for UK or other popular places on request here, some members from canada have sent me links which seems easy to integrate but I need to know if the websites are open to queries from apps.

cheers
