The BART Widget

It looks to me that this widget would be useful for the next MacWorld Expo to help us get around the Bay area.

The Bart Widget is a trip planner for the BART train system in the northern California bay area.

Instructions for use are simple:

1. Open dashboard.
2. See when the next train is coming.
3. Enjoy your smog-free public transportation.

Advanced use:
* Drag baubles on a map to set your route.
* Click the clock to set the date and time. (You can also drag the display or mousewheel.)
* Click the heart to bookmark your route.
* Click the speaker for voice announcements.

No network connection is required. The BART widget is a self-contained trip planner that you can take with you. It's free and open-source.
