Get Comprehensive Train Data (Static + Live)

**This is the primary and most important endpoint for fetching detailed train information.** It provides a comprehensive object containing static details (like schedule, route, running days) and can optionally include real-time live tracking data. ### Understanding `dataType` This parameter controls the content of the response: - `full` (default): Returns the complete `TrainData` object, including static info, route, and live data if available. - `static`: Returns only the static `TrainData` (train info and route), without making a call for live data. Useful for displaying schedules without needing real-time status. - `live`: Returns only the `LiveTrainStatus` object. This is a lightweight option to quickly get the current status of a train without fetching the full static schedule again. ### Understanding `journeyDate` The `journeyDate` (in `YYYY-MM-DD` format) is crucial for identifying a specific instance of a train's run. - If you provide a date, the API will fetch the status for that specific journey. - If you **do not** provide a date, RailRadar's backend will automatically determine the most relevant journey date. This could be today's date if the train is running, a past date if the train has recently arrived, or the next upcoming run date.
