GTFS

GTFS files are files that comply to the General Transit Feed Specification. In these files you can find rules in a relational structure on when a certain bus, train or tram is going to depart or arrive.

You typically download these files, change them to your own internal model and store them in your database for your use case.

We update these files every week. These are datasets that we manage ourself, and are not affiliated with the transport agencies themselves. These are not official sources of the data, yet our team of volunteers take a lot of pride in keeping them of very high quality:

    Hello,
    The data is out of date since march 2017 in this dataset https://gtfs.irail.be/nmbs for SNCB.
    Are you going to update it ?
    The recent data is available here I think : http://www.belgianrail.be/nl/klantendienst/infodiensten-reistools/public-data.aspx
    Thanks,
    Faten

      Hi faten,

      We’re no longer updating this data since the NMBS/SNCB now provides GTFS and GTFS-RT feeds. If you would like to get these GTFS feeds, you can use the official ones. If you still have any questions, feel free to ask us!

      Greets,
      Bert

    As of today, SNCB has removed the page available here http://www.belgianrail.be/nl/klantendienst/infodiensten-reistools/public-data.aspx
    Therefore it does not seem possible to download their GTFS feed anymore
