Revision as of 16:17, 7 September 2021

This page lists the codes used to identify Train Operating Companies (TOCs) in the various data feeds available from Network Rail. Different feeds use different sets of codes to refer to the same company. Network Rail also have a set of business codes for each of their geographical areas of responsibility, listed at the bottom.

History

Business codes are used for a variety of purposes, and are comprised of two alphabetic characters. Historically, the first letter was assigned as follows:

Code Description
C Central Services
D Railfreight Distribution
E Train Operating Companies
G British Rail International
H Train Operating Companies
J Other Businesses
K BREL and Level 5 Depots
L Train Operating Companies
P Train Operating Companies
Q British Rail Headquarters
R British Rail Infrastructure Services
T NRCC
U Ex-British Rail (now privatised)
V Ex-British Rail (now privatised)
W DB Cargo UK
X Private owners
Y Private owners
Z Other businesses

Non-Network Rail

  • Company Name is the name of the company
  • Business Code is a two-character code used within the TRUST system. It is used in the names of the individual train movement feeds.[1].
  • Sector Code is the sector code used to represent the TOC in TRUST messages.
  • ATOC Code is a two-character code used to representing the TOC in the SCHEDULE feed. Non-passenger operators are represented by an ATOC code of ZZ and are subject to obfuscation in the SCHEDULE feed (with the exception of GB Railfreight services).
  • Whitelisted means that the sector code is 'whitelisted' and TRUST messages are published for these operators without obfuscation. Sector codes which are not whitelisted will be obfuscated and TRUST messages are published for these operators with sector code 00.
