🚇 Hong Kong MTR Realtime Scraper
🚀 Export live Hong Kong MTR train schedule and arrival times from the Hong Kong open data portal in seconds. From the public Hong Kong MTR source to spreadsheet, JSON, JSONL, XML, RSS, or HTML.
The Hong Kong MTR Realtime Scraper turns the Hong Kong MTR public endpoint into a clean, structured dataset. It pulls live Hong Kong MTR train schedule and arrival times from the Hong Kong open data portal, normalizes the fields, and pushes one row per record.
Coverage is whatever Hong Kong MTR publishes on the public endpoint at the moment you run the actor. No login, no API key, no scraping tricks. Just clean data, ready for analysis.
| 🎯 Target Audience | 💡 Primary Use Cases |
|---|---|
| 📊 Analysts | Pull a fresh snapshot for dashboards |
| 🛠️ Developers | Mirror the feed into your own database |
| 📰 Journalists | Verify facts quickly without writing client code |
| 🤖 ML engineers | Build training sets from the public feed |
| 🏢 Operations teams | Monitor changes over time |
| 🎓 Researchers | Use the data for academic studies |
📋 What the Hong Kong MTR Realtime Scraper does
- Calls the public Hong Kong MTR endpoint and parses the response.
- Flattens the data into one row per record with clean field names.
- Surfaces upstream errors as a single record with the
errorfield set, so your pipeline does not crash. - Lets you cap the output with
maxItemsfor cheap previews. - Streams results to the Apify dataset for instant export.
💡 Why it matters: Public feeds change shape and field names constantly. This actor gives you a stable, documented schema your downstream tooling can rely on.
📊 Data fields
Each record includes: dest, direction, line, plat, results, scrapedAt, station, time, trainSeq, ttnt, valid. These field names come straight from the actor's dataset schema, so what you see here is what lands in your dataset.
⚠️ Good to Know: This actor depends on the public Hong Kong MTR endpoint. If the upstream is rate-limiting or temporarily unavailable, the actor pushes a single record with the
errorfield populated. Re-run later.
