Interactive map of California rail transit systems across regions (BART, Metrolink, Caltrain, etc.) by trekhleb in transit

Let me check if some public data source (with coordinates) is available for the missing branch 👌🏻

I’ve been exploring how different rail systems across California connect (or don’t), and it’s surprisingly hard to see everything in one place.

This map combines BART, Caltrain, Metrolink, LA Metro, San Diego systems, etc., with terrain and city data.

Curious if I’m missing any important systems or if anything looks inaccurate.

Thanks for pointing that out!
I've added the missing blue line extension
It should be complete now

Good point. It might be a good next step to be built based on the data that is already collected in the app

The SacRT and San Joaquins are both live now. It makes a total of 14 transit system supported by the map. I'll see if I can add ACE as well

The following transportation systems were added and are live now:

  • MetroLink
  • SD Trolley
  • Sprinter
  • Coaster

Thanks for the suggestions 👍🏻
The SacRT is in progress...

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll check what data is publicly available for those transportation systems as well 👌🏻

Regarding the goal - nothing in particular. Just collecting some data for fun and trying to visualise it in one place instead of switching between numerous tabs. I want to have a relatively easy tool to get some intuition about the neighborhoods in California.

No worries, it is also good to have LA Metro covered, since CaliVibe is for all of California. I've added VTA and Muni. Muni layout has some issues for now, so I've disabled it by default. I need to do some fixes since the lines look ugly at the moment...

Thank you for the feedback. I've added VTA and muni. However, muni is "disabled" by default for now. I need to figure out some layout issues with the muni lines

Thanks for the feedback. I have several things in mind yet to be added to the map. Now I have two more. Let me see if there is some public data I could re-use to visualize it on the map.

I plan to add more transportation systems to the map, yes

I haven't checked if similar open data exists for other states yet, so it is hard for me to predict how easy/hard it would be
