The whole point of Train Street is being there when a train thunders past inches from your table. That means timing your visit to the schedule — which shifts between weekdays and weekends and can change. Here's how to plan it right.
1. Why Timing Matters
A train only passes a few times a day. Miss the window and you get a pretty alley without the adrenaline. Aligning your visit to a scheduled passing is everything.

3. Why Exact Times Shift
Railway timetables adjust seasonally and trains can run late. Treat any published time as approximate and build in a buffer — arrive early and settle in with a coffee.
