      @cowboysdude for the old MM we ended up using the other function that the developer wrote to refresh and display it on the page. I’m just not sure how I can display it on the MM2 or what I’d need to rewrite to get it to work.

        ok. Do you have an api key you could provide to me via chat/pm? Then I don’t need to request an own one just for testing purposes

        Nevermind, I got one :)

            @cowboysdude problem is I am so new to it and I don’t really know the best way to test without actually uploading everything to the Pi. I was using notepad++ to write but for testing I had used xampp for the MM1. That doesn’t work with node I don’t think right? I am a programmer but work mostly as a SQL developer so I never had a need for learning JavaScript. Is there any particular class, site, etc. I can start out with to learn and actually develop myself? Thanks.

              Could you please tell me your sStation code? I just did some testing with the JSON and noticed I don’t get up-to-date data.
              When I run this I always get data from this morning: https://traintime.lirr.org/api/Departure?loc=CLP&api_key=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

              I need to take a closer look into this later.

                @yawns yes that’s the local station to my house, CLP. The morning ride is CLP to NYK then reverse in the afternoon. It should show the closest train departures and if there’s a delay so this morning would make sense (there were no delays today that I know of). So when I test I would just set a delay of like 8 minutes to see if anything showed up.

                  Do you know of a list of all stations with their LOC code for api requests? They have a list of stations, but I can’t find the codes

                    @yawns there used to be a ton of documentation on the API which for some reason is now offline. I found a list that was downloaded, here is the link

                        @yawns no problem, I am still trying to find working link where this can be pulled, although there won’t be any new stations anytime soon.
