In conjunction with the East Lancashire Railway we are looking at a possible Railcam UK day at the ELR. This would involve the exclusive use of a heritage DMU for up to three round trips on the line, initially and the potential to visit the Network Rail boundary at Hopwood and Baron Street Depot. At this stage we are gauging interest. Please register your interest on the Facebook post or email contact@railcam.uk with the subject line ELR-Railcam day 2025 and your username in the message area Click Here

Diagrams

Our live signalling diagrams are considered by many to be the best available. They are developed, maintained and kept up-to-date by our dedicated team of volunteers, who know a thing or two about railways and signalling, many having worked in the field for many years.

The diagrams offer a level of detail which you won't find elsewhere and are designed specifically to work on mobile devices, combining a compact schematic format with geographic information.

Data

Railcam offers features which popular rivals don't... We have a system whereby our users can share information about sightings. Many trains have loco or unit TOPS numbers as well as information about the train type (freight load etc) and Freight Operating Company.

Search facilities are specifically designed with the rail enthusiast or photographer in mind
