🔌 MCP Serverlucygoodchild
An MCP server providing real-time UK National Rail schedules and live travel updates via the Realtime Trains API.
This MCP server acts as a specialized interface for the Realtime Trains API, specifically tailored for the UK rail network. By implementing the Model Context Protocol, it allows AI agents to perform structured queries for train times, station departures, and service disruptions. It is designed for developers building AI-driven travel assistants or productivity tools that require up-to-the-minute transit data. The server handles the authentication and request formatting required by the Realtime Trains API, abstracting the complexity of the underlying data structure into simple, actionable tools for the LLM. This integration ensures that AI models can provide context-aware, real-world travel advice based on live operational data rather than static training information.
