Train spotter

For little train fans – which train comes next at your station, with a countdown and a choo-choo.

The train spotter shows, big and colourful, which train arrives next at your station: with a countdown in minutes, a drawn train and a “choo-choo” when it's there.

Switch it on

  1. Tap your profile picture top right and open Settings › Add-ons.
  2. Turn on the switch next to Train spotter.
  3. Then tap Train spotter to set the station.

How it works

  1. Open More › Train spotter.
  2. At the top it says “The next train comes in” with the minutes until departure.
  3. When the train is there, “The train is here!” appears and it makes a sound.
  4. Under After that come the next trains with platform and time.
  5. With the selection top right you show only trains in one direction, e.g. “to Luzern”.
  6. Play the sound at any time with Choo-choo.

Settings

  • Station: which station is shown. If you leave it empty, Hüsli takes the station from Live public transport or the nearest one to you.
  • Choo-choo sound: turns off the sound when a train comes.

Good to know

  • Pro (free during the beta), and only for families in Switzerland.
  • The departures come live from the timetable, including delays, and update by themselves.
  • Only trains are shown, no buses and trams.
