- Motivation
Splitting from station code (P296), in order that we can have the official formatter URL (P1630), an alternative of http://ojp.nationalrail.co.uk/service/ldbboard/dep/$1
; and can take advantage of UK-specific websites to generate third-party formatter URL (P3303) values, such as, for the example above:
