Public Transportation web sights in Great Britain

While in Great Britain I will be using public transportation only for the month of April. What is the most reliable sight for who goes where, arrival/departure times etc....Train Line, Rome2Rio or someone else??

None of the above, if you mean by Public Transportation Trains and Buses and other modes, like ferries. Rome2Rio is useless, and can be discarded immediately.

For integrated public transport information which gives all modes use Traveline- https://www.traveline.info/ for England.

It has spin off sites for Wales and for Scotland- https://www.traveline.cymru/ and https://www.travelinescotland.com/

Those two sites for the devolved nations also give fares information- in Wales on the whole it seems to be pretty good if not stellar, in Scotland the fares bit is woeful but the travel data is good.

Google Maps with its directions by public transport is a good starting point. Depends if you want long-distance public transport or local.

I have to say, ALL of these posts are full of good, useful information you can use. That's just me of course...

Thank you, thank you for your responses!! We have always rented a car BUT sadly we are now 74 and not allowed to rent. (Probably a good idea) but we love trains and buses!!
