Description

When trying to match 8800031 Gent St Pieters from the Deutsche Bahn endpoint, it queries the SNCB/NMBS endpoint in French, which is set as the default language in hafas-client, and fails to match 8892007 Gand-Saint-Pierre.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the language parameter passed to the SNCB/NMBS endpoint in the hafas client code. Identify where the French language default is set and determine the correct language(s) needed for station matching. Consider making the language configurable or iterating over supported languages.
