Script description

YAY AREAAAAAA!!
If you live in the San Francisco Bay Area, you take BART as part of your daily commute, and you have a TC002, you might like this! I made my own version with a Raspberry Pi Zero with a 5" display and thought it'd be great to port this over to the TC002.

To get started, you'll need a BART API Key, select your BART station, and then set the platform number(you can check the BART app for this; which direction the train is going, specific to each station).

You can sign up for your free BART API key here:
https://api.bart.gov/api/register.aspx

Enjoy!
