## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability septa-regional-rail-live-train-positions-1986db15
```

Example prompt: What SEPTA regional rail trains are currently running — show me up to 30 of them with their current stop, next stop, destination, how late they are, and what track they're on.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need real-time positions and delay status for SEPTA regional rail trains specifically. It is ideal for commuter apps, live arrival boards, and delay monitoring in the Philadelphia metro area. Not suitable for schedule lookups, trip planning, bus/subway tracking, or non-SEPTA transit systems.

## Known failure modes

- No trains reporting: empty result set if TrainView feed has no active trains (e.g. late night or service suspension)
- Limit out of range: error if limit parameter is outside 1–200
- Upstream feed unavailable: TrainView feed outage returns error or empty data
- Partial data: some trains may lack certain fields (e.g. track or heading) if not yet transmitted

## How this service works

Live SEPTA regional rail train positions from the public TrainView feed: train number, line, destination, current and next stop, heading, minutes late and track. Covers SEPTA regional rail trains currently reporting; not a schedule.

## Output

A list of SEPTA regional rail trains currently reporting, each with train number, line name, destination, current stop, next stop, heading direction, minutes late, and track assignment. Only trains actively transmitting to TrainView are included; this is not a schedule.
