Welcome To The Trainspotter Search Engine
At The Right Time In The Right Place!
Do you photograph or film trains?Then you've come to the right place! Our Trainspotter web app offers you numerous useful functions to optimally support your passion for trains.
The following functions are available:
This is the heart of our application. Imagine you are standing
near a railway bridge and want to photograph it, but without a train
it looks rather dull. You wonder when the next train will cross the
bridge. With this web app you can easily find out.
Click on the 'Location activity' button. There you can either enter a station name or click on the crosshairs 
to determine your position. Click on and you will soon see a list of trains on the left that pass by your position/station. With the button you can select a random station from the selected country. If you want to see a graphic animation at the selected location, click on the map to go into simulation mode. The web app works on your desktop as well as on your mobile phone. This function allows you to never miss an opportunity to take the perfect photo or video.
Search for train or public transport routes. Here you can also search specifically for journey numbers. This function helps you to get detailed information about the different train routes and to plan your recordings optimally.
Search for connections within a route. With this function you can identify specific sections of a route and thus focus on certain areas that are particularly interesting for your recordings.
Country selection
On the right side you can select your country. This option allows you to track train activity in your specific country and focus on the areas that are of interest to you. The most current data for over 20 countries is available in this app. The system tries to determine the country based on your IP address and will automatically select the appropriate country. However, this does not always work, especially if you are abroad and have roaming switched on.
Note on connection search
Make sure you have a stable internet connection to get the best results for location activity and route search. This is the only way to ensure that you do not miss any important train activities and can fully live out your railway enthusiasm.
User friendliness
Our application is designed to be user-friendly to make navigation easier for you. The clear menus and intuitive buttons ensure that you find the information you need quickly and efficiently. Whether you are an experienced railway photographer or a curious beginner, with our web app you are always in the right place at the right time!
Login/Logout
