The VSTP (Very Short Term Planning) feed provides train schedules which are due to run in the next 48 hours that aren't included in the SCHEDULE feed.

Message Topics

VSTP messages are available through ActiveMQ.

Topic name Description
VSTP_ALL All train schedules which are due to run in the next 48 hours that aren't included in the SCHEDULE feed.

Structure

Messages are sent in JSON format and are broadly similar to the messages in the SCHEDULE feed:

Note: CIF Speed

There is a VSTP process that is known to populate the CIF_speed field incorrectly. These values should be divided by 2.24 to get miles per hour:
