Please add a comment below if you are experiencing any issues/require any assistance with incorporating these changes.

Dear TfL Open Data users,

IMPORTANT INFORMATION RE. LONDON OVERGROUND REBRAND:

We are planning to go live with the changes to the Unified API (UAPI) that support the London Overground rebrand - new line names and colours on: Tuesday 26th November.
We are aiming to start the UAPI update release process around 10.00am - this should take 1-2 hours. We will add a comment to this post to let you know once the release has completed.

Please note this date and time is subject to change. We will use this post to keep you informed as soon as any updates are available/additional information on this can be shared nearer to the time.

  • Further information about the London Overground rebrand and what is planned in each phase is available in this TfL Press Release (Published: Tue 19 Nov).

  • Please also see previous Tech Forum post about London Overground rebrand (includes links to sample data).

ESUI/Line In Status data feed: please note, changes to this feed that support London Overground rebrand are planned to go live at a later date - as part of Phase 2.

We thank you for your patience during this time. Since the cyber incident, TfL have transformed the way we develop and maintain our digital infrastructure. This has meant we have had to change our approach to the London Overground rebrand. We anticipate there will likely be some disruption during the go live, and we ask for your continued support and patience during this time.

If you have any concerns or questions relating to this, please add a comment to this post.

Many thanks
TfL Open Data team

Hi, thanks for the update! This is very exciting for London :slight_smile: Can you just remind us roughly what time you are doing the switch in the APIs tomorrow? I remember reading somewhere 9AM tomorrow, but I cant find this anymore (and I might be wrong)
