Swiss Stationboard: Next Departures or Arrivals at a Station

opendatachtransport/stationboard

The next departures (or arrivals) at one Swiss public transport station, from the national timetable with real-time delay: for each service the line name, category (train, bus, tram, boat), operator, destination, scheduled and expected time, delay in minutes, platform and the pass list of stops. Give the station name or number, optionally departures or arrivals (default departures), and how many services to return (1 to 20, default 5). The station is matched to the best location; the matched station is returned in `station`, and an unknown name returns a null station and an empty list. Swiss Transport API data (timetable from opentransportdata.swiss), passed through unmodified and served by Eden Engine; not an official SBB or Opendata.ch product.
