Muni animated map
Muni is testing an animated map showing the position of all the trains in the entire system.
This replaces a feed from Central Control that was hard to read, but had one advantage in showing whether trains were one or two-car.
What I really need that's not shown here are arrival times. Being able to see N-Judah's bunched up in the avenues doesn't tell me when the next one will arrive. And without any landmarks I can't use this to find a stop unless it's a station or at a line's outer terminal.
Like most of Muni the only directions given are Inbound and Outbound. One of the most common questions riders ask is which way is downtown, but rather than just say "downtown" riders are expected to learn Muni terminology.
