The walking times are from my apartment building at 45 Park Ln S. I timed my walk from my apartment door to the train door a few times and added a bit of buffer. I might be able to make these walk times configurable using URL parameters; I will update this thread if I do that. Or you could self-host this: it’s just a static site with a few HTML, JavaScript, and image files.

I think I understand now – while I saw the adjustable walk time variables in the JS, I just wasn't sure which station your timer were relative to.

Looking at your building location, I see you're near the Hoboken stop. That's why you have the Hoboken departure times hard-coded in the departure_times.js.

I thought the file was just the line schedule and then you'd have to pick a station, but I see now it's just the schedule for the Hoboken station?

Yes, the app only supports departures from the Hoboken station.
