Connects Claude and other MCP clients to Swiss Federal Railways (SBB/CFF/FFS) data through SwissTrip's hosted service. Exposes six tools: station search, connection lookups, detailed trip itineraries with intermediate stops, earlier/later departure queries, ticket pricing with discount options (Halbtax, GA, Sparbillet), and direct purchase links to SBB.ch. Works over stdio via npx or as a remote server for ChatGPT. Tool descriptions and responses support nine languages including German, French, and Italian. Reach for this when you need programmatic access to Swiss rail schedules and ticketing without dealing with SBB's official APIs directly. Independent third party implementation, not affiliated with SBB AG.
