Some links to online timetables.

National Rail
"The gateway to Britain's national rail network." Includes live departure boards for many UK stations. An interesting idea, although still an experimental system - "some of the information shown may be wrong"!

Eurostar
Eurostar is the high speed passenger train linking London, Paris and Brussels. Eurostar can be booked online but requires registration. European rail companies have yet to offer online booking for UK residents but sites such as European Rail and Eurorail are useful for timetables and fares.
