Berth Maps - more accurate train movement data with Exeter area demonstration
Posted by IndustryInsider at 14:07, 25th July 2025
 
Berth Maps is a new system being rolled out to staff pulling together numerous sources into one.

It's not going to be a public release system, but nonetheless the website for it has a live example screen which covers a fairly wide part of the Exeter area from Newton Abbot to Taunton/Chard including the Okehampton/Barnstable and Exmouth branches. 

I don't know if the sample screen rotates every so often, but for those of you who like to watch train movements you get far more detail than on the other mapping services like opentraintimes as it interfaces with GPS as well as signal berths.

So, for example to can watch trains moving along the Barnstable and Okehampton branches from Cowley Bridge Junction where the current systems stop.

You can also see whether a signal is displaying a single or double yellow aspect in areas where that data is available.
