Hi, am i right in saying that the Train Numbers in the Central Line PDF timetable are not the same as those output in the API?
I haven’t been able to match any to those in the Timetable.

Which API endpoint are you using?
https://api.tfl.gov.uk/line/central/Arrivals
The vehicleId is the train number as shown in the WTT (at the top of the column). The trip number is not included the API. Actual train unit numbers are not included in the Unified API but the leading car number is sometimes included in the old Trackernet feeds
Hi, @lewisrday, i am using the following like i am currently for all lines…
cloud.tfl.gov.uk/TrackerNet/PredictionSummary/C
All the other timetables i have used so far… Bakerloo, Northern, Victoria, the train numbers in the feed match with those in the PDF’s
thanks
Neil
Hello @HighTrainsDrifter, that’s because the Central line is currently using an emergency timetable due to issues with their trains, so they are not operating to WTT 70.
Central line disruption - Transport for London (tfl.gov.uk)
Unless I’m mistaken, they are currently operating TTN 99 (TTN 99-24 (Cent).pdf (tfl.gov.uk)) on Mon-Thu, and TTN 88 (TTN 88-23 (Cent)_Redacted.pdf (tfl.gov.uk)) on Fri, Sat & Sun.
