That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for real-time NYC subway info: arrivals, station lookup, service alerts, accessibility status, and more — powered by live MTA feeds.
Data from the MTA • Personal use only • Not endorsed by the MTA • Provided “as is”
Real-time arrivals: upcoming trains for a station/line (with extra signals like crowding when available).
Station search: fuzzy name matching + optional accessibility info.
Service alerts & disruptions: system-wide or line-specific status and advisories.
Elevator & escalator status: live outage info for accessibility planning.
Nearby station lookups (location-aware): find stations near a lat/lon (great for “near me” if your client provides GPS; also works for “near Times Square” when the model/client can resolve it to coordinates).
Transfers: basic transfer options at a station.
Live MTA GTFS-RT: coverage across subway lines.
