There are no upcoming departures from Ottawa in the data right now. That usually means the last train of the day has gone, or the operator has not published the next service period yet.

About this page

Departures for Ottawa come from VIA Rail Canada, OGL-Canada 2.0. This market publishes a timetable without live delay reporting, so the board shows planned times and the status column stays empty. The app shows the same trains moving on a live map, which is the part a static page cannot do.

The page itself is rebuilt roughly every half hour; open it again for a fresh board rather than relying on a tab left open since morning.

Questions people ask

How do I check whether a train from Ottawa is delayed?

Open the board above — the status column shows the delay in minutes next to each departure. For a train that has already left, or for one departing later today, the live map in the Trainradar24 app follows the whole run.

Which platform does my train leave from?

The platform column shows it whenever the operator publishes that information. A dash means the platform has not been assigned yet; it usually appears a few minutes before departure, and the screens at Ottawa remain the final word.

How far ahead does the board go?

It lists the next departures from the moment the page was built, not a full day's timetable. For a train leaving tomorrow, use the search in the app.

Where does the data come from?
