Find Deutsche Bahn stations by name. Call this only when a name is ambiguous or another tool rejected it; the other tools accept plain station names directly. Returns name, EVA number (eva), products served, and the full bahn.de id (also accepted by other tools).

Plan train connections between two stations with live bahn.de data.

Each connection: dep/arr (real-time; '(+7)' = 7 min late, '(+1d)' = next day), duration, changes, price in EUR for the given travellers/BahnCard (None with Deutschlandticket), load (occupancy) per class, recon_token (pass to db_journey_offers for Sparpreis/Flexpreis breakdown), and per leg: line, platforms (real-time, with *_platform_changed), stops count, amenities (WiFi, bike, step-free…), cancellations, journey_id (pass to db_trip_details), and disruption notes. A journey flagged alternative is DB's re-route around a disruption.

All fares bahn.de offers for ONE specific connection (Super Sparpreis, Sparpreis, Flexpreis, regional day tickets…) with price and class, re-checked live. Use after db_journeys when the user asks 'how much' or 'cheapest ticket'. Prices are informational, not a booking.

Bestpreissuche: the cheapest available fare in each time band of a day (00–07, 07–10, 10–13, 13–16, 16–19, 19–24) with the connection it applies to. Use for 'when is it cheapest to go'. Typically only meaningful for long-distance routes booked in advance.

Live departure board: time (real-time, with delay), line, destination, platform (real-time, platform_changed flag), cancellation, disruption notes, and journey_id for db_trip_details.

Live arrival board, same shape as db_departures (direction = origin).

Every stop of one specific train run with scheduled and real-time arrival/departure, platform (real-time), load, and notes — i.e. 'where is this train now, is my stop still served, which platform at my stop'. Also returns train amenities and running days.

Stations and stops around a GPS position — 'stations near me'. Returns name, EVA number, products, and the bahn.de id usable in every other tool.

Coach order and platform sectors for a long-distance train at a station: which sector (A–G) 1st class, bistro, bike and quiet coaches stop at, and the real-time platform. Answers 'where do I stand on the platform'. ICE/IC/EC only; not available for regional trains.
