That's cool, especially like that the parallel lanes don't overlap. I did something similar, but simpler, a few years ago for Hamburg's public transit "hvv" [1]. Described my approach in a blog post [2]. Hasn't been updated in three year, so probably some lines are broken. [1]: https://hvv.live [2]: https://franz.hamburg/writing/the-moving-city.html

I attempted to do something like this for Lisbon's metro but unfortunately never managed to get it working well enough (due to my own skill shortcomings).

The data available is the waiting time for each train ID per station, with infrequent updates and very non linear behaviour. If anyone has tips to turn this into a linear movement along a line I'd be very interested.

The amount of detail in this map is absolutely incredible. Pretty much every conceivable rail service is present. I especially like the route planning feature. It’s no Hyperdia [1], that thing is a monster, but it’s super duper cool for local trips. As someone who’s messed around with Tokyo transit apps as half-baked personal projects, color me impressed!

I tried to search for some routes on Hyperdia. I'd say I still prefer transit.yahoo.co.jp in both results and UI.

Pretty cool! But this is not live right?

Nice! We also did something similar:
