This was an OSM background on which the trains from the Erzgebirgsbahn were overlayed. I took a few photos but I now also see that they have an internet version of it on <http://www.vms.de/egb/index.html>. The version in the train had as default view the train you were sitting in and that trains timetable was shown on the left (just as a train that you click on wil show its timetable on the right).
