Summary
Taps into live MTA GTFS-RT feeds to surface real-time subway arrivals, station lookups with fuzzy search, service alerts, and accessibility status including elevator outages. Exposes nearby station queries via lat/lon coordinates, so if your client can pass GPS or geocode an address, you get proximity results. Useful when you're building conversational interfaces for commute planning, want to surface disruptions before a trip, or need to check accessibility routing. Runs as an HTTP transport server. Data is MTA-sourced but unofficial, so treat it as best-effort for personal projects rather than mission-critical production use.

Where's My Train? — MCP Server (NYC Subway)
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”
What this gives you
- 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.
