Public transport line colors

This repository is made for collecting line colors in public transport lines, so they can be displayed on systems using DB HAFAS.

Structure

The line-colors.csv contains several columns:

  • shortOperatorName: Short operator name (i.e. vehicle keeper marking/"Halterkürzel" or another identifier for EVU) and a local transport network abbreviation
  • lineName: Displayed line name
  • hafasOperatorCode: used to identify the correct line, if line id is not distinct. Can be empty!
  • hafasLineId: identifies the HAFAS line - you can get this by requesting a departure for the line from HAFAS (i.e. using db-rest playground)
  • backgroundColor: Color-Hexcode for the display background color
  • textColor: Color-Hexcode for the text color
  • rounded: Specifies whether the line icon has rounded ends or not

Contributing

If a line operates in a local transport network/"Verkehrsverbund", the network's line color shall be preferred.
Local transport networks usually have line colors for:

  • suburban lines / "S-Bahn"
  • subway lines / "U-Bahn"
  • tramway lines / "Straßenbahn, Stadtbahn"
  • bus lines / "Bus"

I'd be very happy if this file could expand very fast, so please feel free to add more lines by opening a PR.

BUT FIRST

  • Check that entries are sorted first by shortOperatorName and then lineName
  • Reference a source in your PR where data can be proved (somewhere from the internet, like a timetable PDF...)
    • Don't add it to sources.json, just mention it in your PR
  • All entries in the CSV (except lineName) shall be in lower case
