Field notes
A session can be planned by choosing a route or a target duration; users may add up to five goals, choose ambient sound, and track the train as a countdown runs. The site says station selection draws on Wikidata, passenger numbers, and Wikipedia interest, with busy city areas capped at three stations. It also says session records stay on the device and no account is required.
