Train Times in Google Maps Simplified

Google Maps has simplified the process of displaying train times to train station searches.



If you search for a transit station in Google Maps you may now see a list of transit lines that service the station. The lines are coloured and grouped by transit type to make it easier to find the line that you are looking for.

If you click on any of the displayed line you will be given the time of the next scheduled departure on that line.
