Know your platform before the station shows it.
Platform Pal watches the railway’s own signals and tells you the platform as early as it can be known, with a confidence score we can stand behind.
Platforms marked confirmed are right about 99% of the time.

What each status means
The railway hasn’t announced a platform yet. This one is based on the train’s own recent runs, so it can change once the railway decides.
The platform the railway has booked for your train. Usually right, and it can change nearer to departure.
The station is already showing this platform, or your train is routing to it. Not locked in yet, but it rarely changes at this stage.
The station’s own departure boards are showing this platform. Head over when you’re ready.
About forty minutes earlier
Same train, same minute. Platform Pal reads the railway’s own routing, so the platform usually shows here well before it reaches the station boards.
