I just came across this tool, which - after entering a city - shows all other cities to which there is a direct train connection. A color code depicts the travel hours.

Examples:

Although I’m not quite sure yet on what occasion I can use the tool. But someday the moment will come :D

Btw. there is a Sparpreis search on https://bahn.guru/ with a monthly view (“On which day do I travel cheapest from A to B?”). Unfortunately the links to the store don’t work yet.

    Ok, found

    direkt.bahn.guru internally uses a (legacy) API by Deutsche Bahn to find all direct trains running via a given station within the next 1-2 weeks. This API includes most trains in central Europe, but data availability gets significantly lower the further away stations are from routes (co-)operated by DB. Furthermore, trains operated by smaller companies seem to be missing more often than those run by state-owned operators, probably due to a lack of data sharing agreements.
