Train service codes and anonymisation of services
Dear Network Rail Limited,
Network Rail publishes industry data through the open data platform. In the open data feeds, 'commercially sensitive' trains are anonymised on train service code level in such a way that the train cannot be immediately identified (i.e. by deleting information and using pseudo-codes).
I hereby request a list of all train service codes which should appear in the open data feeds as anonymous.
Yours faithfully,
Juhani Pirttilahti
