Public Rides Data

Part of the network This covers Merseyside's Arriva and Stagecoach buses, published through Britain's Bus Open Data Service. Merseyrail's Northern and Wirral line trains, including the four underground city-centre stations the Liverpool guide describes, aren't included: Britain's national rail timetable is distributed as a licensed CIF feed rather than GTFS, with no anonymous bulk download to draw from.
