Has anyone tried consolidating all these national trackers into a big European one?

Maybe this one here? https://mobility.portal.geops.io/world.geops.transit

Berlin and Brandenburg in Germany: https://www.vbb.de/fahrinfo/ (need to enable it in the top right corner). Includes ICE, regional, suburban trains, subway, trams, buses and ferries.

This is nicely done. Is there something like this for all of Germany (except https://zugfinder.net)

Btw, there's also this one for Munich: https://s-bahn-muenchen-live.de

For the UK, quite a good one, can see trains moving from zoomed out https://www.map.signalbox.io/

Love the sharing feature, I wish this was a standard feature used by public transportation apps.

For comparison, I find it quite funny the UK version colours ones red which are 10 minutes late. In the Hungarian one, red means 50min+ late.

what's the late cut-off in Japan, 2 minutes?

Dutch live railway map: https://spoorkaart.mwnn.nl/ Transport tycoon in the Netherlands is played by 4 or 5 competitors. You can see make out their coloring and general area of operation on this map too. Fun fact: In the Netherlands you have to make sure you 'checkin' to the right transportation company, some stations have 3 checkin posts. Very annoying and embarrassing and error prone. https://commons.wikimedia.org/…

I went to the main site of that one, looks like the guy does woodworking for a living or hobby :D

It's incredible that even when you zoom both countries to be the same size, the Hungarian map is still way more dense.

The design is beautiful. It's like an old paper map came to life.
