right - 24:37 friday makes is read as "37 past midnight on friday night" - which is friday night as humans consume time, but saturday morning by the calendar.
Being awake past midnight brings up a few challenges with calendars. My watch wil count a late (late) night walk against tomorrow, not against today. As a human, I consider "tomorrow" as "after I've gone to sleep", not "after midnight". 00:37 is still very much tonight.

An app I have to track habits and streaks lets you specify the time to count as "that day". I often walk my dog after midnight, so I have this set to 3am.
In the context of the train departure time, it's easy to work out what is meant by a weekday 00:37 arrival, but if they were divorced from each other for some reason, weekdays at 24:37 would be easier to interpret.
