phpOpenLDBSVWS

Very simple PHP object encapsulation of the National Rail Enquiries live departure boards SOAP web service staff version (OpenLDBSVWS) as documented at http://lite.realtime.nationalrail.co.uk/OpenLDBSVWS/

Notes

• Historic methods are no longer supported by the SOAP web services. Archived service metrics and service detail can be obtained from the Historical Service Performance API.

• Separated out top level WSDL XML for the Main and Reference services is required for compatibility with PHP's SOAP client

  require("OpenLDBSVWS.php");
  $OpenLDBSVWS = new OpenLDBSVWS("YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN",TRUE);
