Dear #train-verse,

do you know if there is a website with real time position data on swiss trains? I'm interested in local trains, not long distance ones

For trains in Lombardy (Italy) I would use either viaggiatreno.it/ or trenord.it/linee-e-orari/circo… , but trying to track e.g. the 25410 or 25458 (Varese - Como line) there is a swiss shaped hole¹ in the data.

I've found tilo.ch/servizi/informazioni-t… and sbb.ch/it/informazioni-viaggio… but unless I'm mistaken none of these have real time data.

¹ I'm sure there is a swiss cheese related pun in there :D

@valhalla if you look for a specific train you get a sort of such information (but on last few years is less reliable). There should be also an api and there is something in opendata.ch (but many example site are not more working)

@cate looking for the specific train where? on sbb.ch/it/informazioni-viaggio… I only see a field to search for a place

@valhalla ffs.ch and put origin and destination (note: past is always on time, because marketing). from your link I cannot go on main page, because …

@cate ok, thanks

I sort of see some data. honestly, the italian ones are much cleaner, and that's after I've always complained about the way they work :D

@valhalla BTW, one Swiss conductor told me to look at the Italian site for better information about trains coming from Italy.
