Hacking on and maintaining #gnomemaps
Made some more progress on the implementation of the “stoptimes” API from MOTIS in Maps.
Now actually showing departures (or arrivals) in the place details when clicking on a “public transit-type“ place (station etc.), when there's data available in Transitous.
The rows still only shows the transit mode icon and line number/name (e.g. missing time, destination and so on…)

On the way to Hamburg
Visiting Miniatur-Wunderland
Visited the border museum in Schlutup the other day. The northernmost previous boarder crossing between the BRD and DDR during the cold war.
Also crossed a border between two German Bunderländer (Schleswig-Holtein and Mecklenburg-Vorpommern) on foot for the first time.

Switching to the night train in Malmö
Next leg towards Malmö.
Due to the incoming train from Berlin being severely delayed, we're getting reassigned to seating cars to Malmö...
Visited the old Elbe tunnel again, this time the big elevators where in service, unlike last time in 2023
Experimenting with showing platform information for the public transit itineraries in Maps (when available from datasets).
Maybe these labels spelling out "Departing from…" and so on are a bit "wordy"…
On RE towards Lübeck
First leg of the trip to Lübeck

Predicting maglev trains might reach a break-through during 2026, I think it might be time to change the “default generic” icon in the route mode switcher widget for transit in Maps from the current train to a new variant!
