This thinking can however also be taken to far. The Dutch Railways recently released an API for all their trip planning, live departures and pricing info. Unfortunately, it's mainly a way to get at the API their apps call: it's all presentation based. For instance, up until recently there was no way to tie a certain train service listed in a given trip to the same service in the live departure endpoint. It's also still not possible to tie a train service to its schedule. They've taken their API and made it all consumer-oriented and it's gone overboard.
