NYC Subway Guide

The NYC Subway Guide MCP server turns the MTA's real-time subway feeds into a structured, agent-callable interface for stations, live arrivals, service alerts, and route planning across all New York City subway lines. Instead of scraping schedules or juggling multiple transit APIs, any AI agent — Claude, GPT, Gemini, or a custom LLM — can query current train positions, upcoming arrivals at a given station, active delays, and suggested routes between two points in the five boroughs, all through a single, consistent tool schema.

Hosted through BusinessMCP, this NYC subway MCP server becomes one of the tools exposed on your unified /api/mcp endpoint, authenticated with your company's mcph_* Bearer key. That means a support bot, an internal ops assistant, or a customer-facing concierge agent can pull live subway arrivals and service alerts using the same endpoint it already uses to query your product database, CRM, or ad platform data — no separate integration, no extra API keys to manage. The BusinessMCP business-intelligence dashboard logs every call, so you can see how often agents are checking transit status, which stations get queried most, and where route-planning requests cluster, giving you usage visibility alongside the raw transit data.

This makes the server a natural fit for any NYC-based business whose product, support flow, or logistics touch the subway: a delivery or field-service company that needs to route couriers around service changes, a hospitality or events business answering
