It's all info made publicly available. There's some info on Network Rail's website for developers. here: http://www.networkrail.co.uk/data-feeds/
It's also worth a look at the Open Rail Data Wiki: http://nrodwiki.rockshore.net/index.php/Main_Page
What'd be great is if bus operators would make their data feeds publicly available for developers. It'd give someone the opportunity to collate service information for the big three in the North East in one source.
