VSTP

Overview

The VSTP (Very Short Term Planning) feed provides schedule records via the VSTP process.

This channel is a real-time channel. Freight services are not included in these channels; only messages containing headcodes for classes 1, 2 and 9 are included in this feed.

Last minute schedule changes that can't be reflected in the Amazon S3 Bucket Schedule Feeds are sent here.

Data Format

More often than not this feed will return a lot of nothing.

With a STOMP Client ID, you can check this feed less regularly that other feeds.

- All Timestamp columns are in Milliseconds
