Description from store
This extension lets you view railways—including trains, trams, subways, light rail, monorails, and narrow-gauge lines—directly on Google Maps.
How it works:
Click the floating “Fetch Rails” button to display all railways in your current map view. Rails appear in bright pink with a white outline. No automatic updates—just fetch whenever you want to see the latest lines for your area.
Features:
🚉 Highlights all railways in your current map viewport.
🌍 Works at zoom level 7 and above; zoom out too far and no data will appear.
⏳ Shows a loading indicator while fetching.
⚠️ Handles errors gracefully and suggests zooming in if the query is too large.
Technical details (for curious users 🛠️):
Uses Overpass API to fetch OpenStreetMap railway data.
Adds an SVG overlay on top of Google Maps for smooth rendering.
Includes debug logging for troubleshooting.
Important:
🗺️ Works only on Google Maps.
Click the button after zooming or moving the map to update the railway overlay.
