CoconA night train on your Mac desktop
Your desktop becomes the window of a night train: the lights of a town roll past, and now and then a lamp sweeps its glow across the screen.
City lights rolling past at night across a Mac desktop. This is the real app, recorded on a Mac.
For macOS 14 Sonoma and later
What you get
Distant lights drift slowly along the bottom of the screen while the nearest ones race by, stretched by the speed, the way they do from a real carriage. A lamp passes close from time to time, and every so often a station rushes past in a row of platform lights. The whole view sways gently with the train.
The sound is the low rumble of the carriage with the rhythm of the wheels over the rail joints, which speeds up with the intensity. Stations and the rail clatter can each be turned off.
Settings
- Visual intensity, which sets the speed of the train

Good to know
Night Train is part of Cocon Pro, a one-time purchase. You can preview it for 30 seconds before deciding.
Cocon lives in the menu bar. It draws on the desktop, behind your windows, never takes a click, needs no account and no special permission, and pauses when a full-screen app covers it.
