  • iRail station bugs

  • iRail is back

    After careful consideration with my lawyer Ywein Van den Brande, I have decided to put iRail back online. The copy of the letter to the NMBS/SNCB can be viewed here.

Note that the php on apache (recompiled each request, about 1.5-2sec between every request) versus the cached output has a huge difference.
