I notice that the live maps on raildar.co.uk are no longer displaying.
Does anyone know what's gone wrong or when/whether it will be fixed?

Ah, I see what the problem is. They seem to have removed the ability to
bookmark a map that is centred on a specific station, using a URL of the
form raildar.co.uk/map/LDS. That URL now gives a blank screen (no map) apart
from a bit of "furniture" around the edge such as search box, zoom sllider
and Raildar logo.

Now when you click on the Map link, the URL remains as
raildar.co.uk/radar.html even after you search for a specific station. My
browsers were still set to use the old syntax. Odd that there seems to be no
way any more of bookmarking a specific station.

However they seem to have problems. I'm getting a greyed-out map with a
Google message "This page can't load Google Maps correctly":
https://i.postimg.cc/j5DQHhc0/Raildar-Windows.png The map remains greyed
even after I acknowledge the message and dismiss that dialogue box.

Seems that the Raildar app on Android doesn't work on newer versions of
Android (eg 13).

I discovered all of this when I was copying across browser links from an
old, point-of-death (*) Android 8 phone to my new Android 13 phone. No great
loss if it doesn't work properly.

(*) Reboots or locks up at random times, sometimes as early as when it is
completing the boot just after drawing my security pattern - happens even if
I remove the SD card and no matter whether on full battery or connected to
charger. Tried restoring to factory state (in case of OS corruption) but to
no avail. Utterly buggered. It's had a good life.

Ah, it was "Junction Maps" that I was using. That does still use a URL of
raildar.co.uk/map/LDS and it's broken. I'll email them...

That's either because the site is exceeding its Google Maps quota, or
because there's an issue with the payment method set up for the account.

Any use of Google's chargeable APIs now requires you to set up a Billing
Account and add a credit card to it, even if you manage to keep your usage
below the monthly $200 credit. If you click on the "Do you own this
website?" message in the dialogue box, you end up at this page:

https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/error-messages?utm_source=maps_js&utm_medium=degraded&utm_campaign=billing#api-key-and-billing-errors
