Arrivals API - Met line Destinations

Hello,

During service disruption on the Met line today, most southbound trains are terminating at Wembley Park and then reversing via Neasden depot but any trains (that are still in passenger service) with the destination of Wembley Park (and with a valid vehicleId / train number on Trackernet) are not coming through the Unified API.

I can see the trains on Trackernet.

Thanks

EDIT: It’s the same case for Harrow-on-the-Hill too

Sounds like it could be the same issue as one you reported a while back - is this something you could look into again @jamesevans?

It is yes, I remember reporting it but didn’t realise that it was two years ago!

hi @arturs @lewisrday

This has actually been on my backlog to sort out for the last 2 years. I was looking at it the other day and am hoping to get this sorted in the next few weeks. I’ve got some time this week to get a test build in (although finding data to test against is difficult!)

In terms of the Trackernet data, if there is no destination code (i.e. DE=“0”) that may be the cause also - we don’t currently have a way of processing these into the API.

I’ll try to give an update in the next couple of weeks on this.

Many thanks,
James
