European Railroad Discussion > Is there a new link for Zurich main station camera?

There was a link posted here a long time ago, but it has been off line for months. Is there a new link available?
thanks in advance

The site that I had been watching was out of order for so long (surprised that Swiss attention didn't repair this more quickly) I deleted from my list.

Newer post 11/21
The site was offered by Skyline Web Cams (with other locations in Switzerland, Europe and around the world.  The image for Zurich HBF still shows "Off Line"

Not sure, I think it was there only for the construction of additional tracks in the station, then removed.

First the Prague tram site goes blank then this one. What's the world coming to?

The entire time (2 years +/-) I watched, I saw no trackwork on the screen.  The station was out of sight to the left.

It seems there is not, but there is an alternative, albeit at considerable expense if you are not already in Switzerland. https://25hours-hotels.com/zurich/langstrasse/meetings-and-occasions/trainspotting-suite/

I noticed this hotel from a train when I was in Zurich last month. On the neon signs around the hotel, the word "trainspotting" is highlighted.

Maybe a different camera? I watched the construction on the lead, adding two tracks with a turnout laying machine placing puzzle switches.

I must have been visiting for over 3 years. I went to Zurich in October of last year and went to a spot that I knew was covered by the camera and later took a screen shot of myself in the spot. It was fun to see the weather, the trains at basically all times during the day...
Too bad if it is gone. Watching the Trevi Fountain in Rome is nice, but not the same! :o)
