Planes, Trains & Harbors

Transport has an audience of its own, and the live airport webcams, railcams and harbour cams here are made for it: planespotting from the airport fence with the tower radio, freight and passenger trains passing a level crossing on a busy main line, ferries, cruise ships and container vessels sliding into harbour, and the locks and bridges that let them through. Every one of them runs on a timetable, which is what makes them watchable: the morning bank of arrivals at a hub airport, the evening departures, the freight trains that follow the same path at the same hour each day, and the cruise ships that dock at dawn and leave at sunset. Weather adds the drama, crosswind landings and fog, and the biggest aircraft draw crowds to the fence. Airports and ports work twenty-four hours; the railways go quiet between midnight and five.
