That's done in advance, server-side, check the AJAX feed with vehicle data

Yeah, I guess I have to figure out a lot more about Javascript before I can
make something close to this...
I actually already figured out you used the FusionTables as overlay, but
didnt really understand why you also used the encoded polylines. (I do now
:P )

Wow that project looks amazing!
All your data is coming from the map.js file?
Could you perhaps explain a bit how you did that?

I didn't get to work on my web application a lot this week, but I found a
way to get the times of arrival a lot faster and easier. (by planning routes
and saving all the stations)
Now, the problem is that all the routes are planned in the future, you can't
request data from the past. So somehow
Cool, thanks for those examples, I'll check them out soon.
As for the database, considering the fact trains always follow fixed routes,
I guess I could make those myself from the polyline segments.
However, this will not be very nice with temporary changes, I'll have to
look into that.

Same thing ; my point was that you don't need to animate or display
any kind of _polyline_ at all, just plot train markers on the map.
Polyline-animating examples may be irrelevant for
What exactly do you think is the difference between an animation and
calculating the positions in intervals?
Ultimately I'd like to have the marker moving smoothly, (which is why I
reffered to that example earlier) and I don't know if that's the case with
what you are describing (the intervals).
If you are calculating and plotting real-time train locations, you
don't need any kind of polyline animation as such. You just plot the
trains, and recalculate and re-plot at intervals.
You will need the polyline between stations so that you know where to
plot the trains, though. From the timet
@Rossko:
Well, the national train company from The Netherlands has got a database,
which is accessible to all.
In that database you can request all the available trainstations, and
request all departing trains for every station. A small example of that can
be seen here: http://ephemurl.com/3d/pj

Yeah, that would be good aswell, as long as it is possible to move them
based on time, and really animate them, so you can see them move.
Ok, the dynamic animation isnt really neccessary, but would make the whole
look a lot better.
Could you perhaps show me an example of the examples?
I'm probably misunderstanding what you mean by 'plan routes'.
Can you describe what you expect a user to see and do, and what you
expect to happen when they do it?
As Larrys says, it's easy to move a marker along a known polyline and
you've already found an example of that in your other threads.

If you have a polyline, it isn't hard (or at least there are examples

Let's say if I wanted to animate trains along custom drawn polylines, how
hard would that be?
And the data for the departure and arrival times would be gathered from a
database.

You can't persuade the Google routing engine to use your data.

Thanks! And when I want Google Maps to plan routes across those lines,
how do I have to build the railroad network? (1 shape, multiple, etc.)
How does that work?

That looks like what I need!
And when I want google to use those lines to plan routes across them,
do they all need to be 1 shape, or how do I have to build the railroad
