Returns the ordered stations a subway route serves. Pass the route in the path (for example L) and an optional direction to order stations in the rider’s direction of travel. Set includeArrivals=true to attach live arrivals to each station (bounded by limitArrivals and limitStops). The response is a RouteStopsResponse: { route, mode, directions: [{ direction, headsigns?, stops: [...] }] }, where each stop carries an optional arrivals array when hydrated.

const stations = await mta.subway.routeStations({ route: 'L', direction: 'north' })

for (const pattern of stations.directions) {
  for (const stop of pattern.stops) {
    console.log(stop.name)
  }
