Hey all! My train the other day was delayed and I got curious where they all were at any given time, so I built a map and figured I'd share it.

Railway▲405Hacked together a service in Go https://github.com/xlab/cdn-s3-go that routes content request to any arbitrary S3-compatible bucket.

I wanted to build a tool to help people decide when and where to travel. As I started building, I realized that "when" and "where" need separate treatment to be most useful. The map tool handles "where" best: https://championtraveler.com/travel-weather-map/ Clicking through each week would be frustrating for those who know where they want to travel but not when. For these people I built "best time to travel" pages using the same data. https://championtraveler.com/best-time-to-travel/ My hope is this site will help travelers plan. This data is taken…

I made a platform that finds trips (return flight + accommodation) under £100 to European destinations. You can - * See return flights details and a link to book. * See hotel details and a link to book. * See any local transport passes to buy with their official link. * Generate itinerary (Need to optiise the response time) * Ask our Travel Bot (Eazy) for any tips (WIP) No sign-ups or paywall. Simply explore. I'd love any feedback. We currently cover departures from UK cities. The basic functionality will always be free for everyone. Subscribe to the email list to get notified of the best…
