v1.0.2 — Interactive map with accurate rail line routing
What's new
Map overhaul
The interactive map now shows accurate rail line routing with colored polylines connecting all stations and terminals.
Routing fixes:
- Montclair-Boonton and Morris & Essex lines connect through Newark Broad Street to Hoboken Terminal (their cutover terminal)
- Northeast Corridor and North Jersey Coast lines connect through Secaucus to Penn Station New York
- North Jersey Coast Line properly joins NEC shared track at Rahway
- Raritan Valley Line connects to Newark Penn Station (its cutover terminal)
- Morris & Essex Gladstone Branch renders as a separate fork converging at Summit
Visual improvements:
- Switched from default OpenStreetMap tiles to CartoDB Positron — a muted gray basemap that lets the transit lines pop
- Added colored polylines connecting stations along each rail route
- 10 new station markers for better coverage
Navigation
- Added Map link to the nav bar on all pages (was previously unreachable)
Technical
Route polylines are now defined separately from station markers, allowing accurate rendering of branching lines (M&E Gladstone) and shared track (NJCL/NEC from Rahway north). Still zero-build, zero-dependency (except Leaflet.js CDN for the map page).
