We've got some great talks for you:

OpenTRV (https://twitter.com/OpenTRV)on IoT meets buses

“The future is now (well, RealSoonNow(TM)); OpenTRV is starting an IoT project to try to improve public transport, initially buses. If you could add sensors to London bus stops what ones would you and why and are there any ethics issues?”

Loco2 (https://twitter.com/jamieandrews)on Google, UX and open data

"For a 'London to Avignon by train' search, Google currently tells you to go via Germany and that it takes 13 hours when actually there are direct trains much of the year, and it’s a 6-hour journey."

Peter Hicks (https://twitter.com/poggs) on Open Rail Data

"Why Open Rail Data is important. What’s been done to get us to where we are. Where it’s all going."

Hosted by James Singleton (https://unop.uk/)

Working on an open source JSON proxy for the National Rail Live Departure Boards (huxley.unop.uk (http://huxley.unop.uk/)) amongst other things.

Plus the usual beers and networking
