Description

amtrak_train_status

Live Amtrak train status and GPS tracking — "where is my Amtrak train", "is train 6 late", "track the California Zephyr". Accepts a train number ("6", "2150") or route name ("Coast Starlight", "Empire Builder"). Returns each active instance of that train: current GPS position, speed, heading, timeliness, next station with ETA and delay minutes, and origin/destination scheduled vs actual times. Data is a community mirror of Amtrak's own tracking feed (api-v3.amtraker.com); positions update about every few minutes. Example: amtrak_train_status({ train: "6" })

amtrak_station_board

Amtrak station departures/arrivals board — upcoming trains at a station. "What trains are arriving at Chicago Union?", "next train at CHI", "station board for Denver". Accepts a 3-letter Amtrak station code ("CHI", "NYP", "LAX") or a station name ("Chicago", "Portland"). Returns trains currently en route to that station with route, scheduled vs estimated arrival, delay minutes, and status. Live community mirror of Amtrak tracking (api-v3.amtraker.com). Example: amtrak_station_board({ station: "CHI" })

amtrak_routes_active

Summary of ALL currently active Amtrak trains grouped by route — "how many Amtrak trains are running right now", "which Amtrak routes have delays", national system overview. Returns per route: active train count, train numbers, and the worst delay in minutes. Compact; live from a community mirror of Amtrak's tracking feed. Example: amtrak_routes_active({})

amtrak_station_info

Amtrak station lookup by code or name — station name, 3-letter code, city/state, street address, timezone, coordinates, and how many trains are currently inbound. "Where is the Amtrak station in Denver?", "what is station code NYP". Example: amtrak_station_info({ station: "Denver" })
