About Platform Whisperer

Platform Whisperer is a free, independent web app for passengers at London Euston. It gives an unofficial platform prediction for your train before the official announcement and lets people catching the same train share what they see. It is a service of Longford Consulting Limited and needs no account.

How does it work?

Pick your departure on the board to open its train room. The room shows our predicted platform, a confidence level and the reasons behind it. Other passengers in the room can report what they see, such as a confirmed platform or a queue forming. Read how the prediction works.

How do I follow a train?

In a train room, tap Follow this train. You can follow one train at a time and you get short alerts as it moves from Predicted to Confirmed. Unfollow any time with one tap.

How do I install the app?

On iPhone, open the site in Safari, tap Share, then Add to Home Screen. Alerts on iPhone need the app on your Home Screen. On Android and desktop, use the Install button or your browser's install option.

How do I share it with a friend?

Is it official?

No. Predictions are unofficial and may be wrong. See our privacy notice and terms of use.
