National rail company (NMBS/ SNCB) has not made access to the data available and has threatened to sue people (iRail) who have used access to the site to provide better user experience. National bus services: - De Lijn (busses / trams / subway in Flanders): timetables available in PDF. Mobile app exists and you can contact them to sign a license if you want the data. - TEC (busses / trams / subway in Wallonia): couldn't find links to data - The STIB/MIVB (busses / trams / subway in Brussels) signed an agreement with Google, not sure if others can get the timetables in the same format. timetables are available in PDF though. Mobile app exists but not sure if API is publicly available. |
