Live countdowns
The next three trains at your origin, filtered toward your destination — with expandable stop-by-stop journeys.
Live train countdowns, mainline platforms, disruption status, and delay alerts for your morning and evening routes — right in the Chrome toolbar.
Free. No account. Runs entirely in your browser — only talks to the TfL Open API.
Not another generic status board. Commute Board learns your Tube and National Rail routes and shows trains heading where you're going.

Save home→work and work→home. The popup switches automatically based on time of day.
The extension icon turns green, amber, or red when your line is disrupted — glance before you open anything.
Optional alerts when a line on your commute newly delays. Snooze for 1 hour, 4 hours, or until morning.
Multi-leg journeys show where to change, which line to board next, and stops through to your destination.
Full TfL status for Tube, Elizabeth line, DLR, and Overground when you need the bigger picture.
No sign-up. No API keys. Just your stations.
