  • iRail issues

    Today, I received an e-mail informing iRail was broken, and not showing any information. The issue has been solved and the site is working again as it should be. I have no idea for how long the website has been broken, as currently I’m not using any trains to reach my destinations. 😉 Don’t forget…

  • iRail.be

    I just noticed, while checking my Google Analytics: They mention iRail.be on Tijd.be and on L’Echo.be. Fun !

  • Railtime

    Finally, NMBS/Infrabel does something customer minded. Today (after canceling every train passing through Antwerp-Berchem, due to light problems), they launched Railtime.be. I must say I’m surprised in a positive way. Ok, it has a simple (ugly?) layout, it uses asp and .htm extentions… But hey, we got a site, that isn’t too slow, and seems…

  • NMBS times

    Don’t forget, as of today the belgian (and most other) trains will be using a new time sheet. Use iRail to get to your destination… 😉

  • And a quick switch !

    For the lazy people, like me! If, for some reason, the buttons have two different sizes or you see some weird stuff, try to refresh the page. You should get the new & updated .css file.

  • Quick reset!

    I’ve added some “quick reset” javascript to the from and to fields. Should be easier to use, if you want to change stations. Hope the link isn’t too small for the iPhone-finger. 🙂 — This is a request for comments ! There also were a little over 1000 visitors yesterday (Thursday) on the website. Not…

  • Touch icon

    Anner has designed me a very first version of the iRail icon. He’ll keep on working on it, when he has some more time. As for the *@irail.be e-mail addresses, they seem to be down due to bad DNS/MX records. It’s being solved as we speak, but might take a few hours to update. Please…

  • iRail reviews

    So far, two iPhone sites have written something about iRail; and here are the links. MYiPhone.be iPhon.fr iPhoneclub Belgium-iPhone (forum) iPhonic Special thanks to these website, they have greatly improved the number of visitors so far.

  • iRail maps

    When submitting information on the B-rail site, you get some kind of “map info” with the train station. Now, when submitting the same information through the iRail website, the same link was added to the results. Yet, these links were broken/unavailable, because the session with the NMBS/SNCB site was no longer valid. I have now…
