Cool! So now you can spend more time debugging that awful code that your previous coworker wrote years ago :)

Also in case of not on time, adding delay information might be useful, if available.

Nice, of course if you lived in the S.E. of England you could just display an image saying your train is delayed.

When it’s delayed it’ll show the next service available and how many minutes the original service is delayed by.

@finncya everyone in the UK imagines that the German trains always run whatever the weather and are punctual and comfortable. Is that not true? 😮😮

Is that trainId really useful? You can also update your script to lock screen if you will be missing that train 😝
