## Station Names

- Use common German station names
- "Hbf" means Hauptbahnhof (main station)
- Examples: "Berlin Hbf", "München Hbf", "Frankfurt(Main)Hbf", "Köln Hbf"
- Station names are case-insensitive

## Output

The tool shows:
- Departure and arrival times
- Platform numbers
- Duration
- Number of changes
- Intermediate stops for connections with changes
- Train numbers (ICE, IC, RE, etc.)

## Notes

- The CLI uses the db-vendo-client library
- Some station names in output may show "undefined" (cosmetic issue, doesn't affect functionality)
- Direct connections are listed first
- Times are in 24-hour format
