Show HN: The Official National Train Map Sucked, So I Made My Own

Pavlinbg Sunday, December 21, 2025

Hi HN,

I’m a junior developer. I wanted to share a side project I’ve been working on.

The national railway carrier (BDZ) has no public API. They have an official map but the UI is quite dated, often lags, and doesn't show the full route context.

I wrote a short write-up about the process here: https://www.pavlinbg.com/posts/bg-train-tracker

I know it's still rough around the edges (I'm still working on it), but I’d love to hear your feedback or suggestions!
