In Gullstrand Painlevé coordinates the local observers (or clocks and rulers) who define the direction of the space and time axes are free falling raindrops with the negative escape velocity ${\displaystyle {\rm {v=-\surd [2/r]}}}$ (relative to local observers stationary with respect to the black hole), while in Eddington Finkelstein coordinates they are accelerating to the squared raindrop velocity ${\displaystyle {\rm {v=-2/r}}}$, which they achieve by a proper acceleration of ${\displaystyle {\rm {a=F/m=1/\surd [(r+2)^{3}r]}}}$ radially outwards, so de facto a deceleration. In the classic Schwarzschild Droste coordinates the local clocks and rulers are stationary with respect to the black hole, so they also experience a proper outward acceleration of ${\displaystyle {\rm {a=1/r^{2}/\surd [1-2/r]}}}$, which is infinite at ${\displaystyle {\rm {r=2}}}$.

In SD and GP coordinates, ingoing and outgoing worldlines at ${\displaystyle {\rm {r\to 0}}}$ terminate with infinite coordinate velocity ${\displaystyle {\rm {dr/dt\to -1/0}}}$ (therefore around ${\displaystyle {\rm {r=0}}}$ they are depicted as horizontal worldlines on the spacetime diagrams), while in EF coordinates they arrive with ${\displaystyle {\rm {dr/dt=-1}}}$, which holds for timelike and lightlike geodesics (they all have ${\displaystyle 45\mathrm {{}^{\circ }} }$ at ${\displaystyle {\rm {r\to 0}}}$ on the diagrams). The local velocity of photons relative to other local infalling test particles and the singularity is ${\displaystyle {\rm {v=\pm 1}}}$ though all the way, while the velocity of timelike test particles goes to ${\displaystyle {\rm {v\to -\infty }}}$ relative to the singularity.

With the Schwarzschild Droste line element

${\displaystyle {\rm {ds^{2}=g_{tt}\ dt^{2}+g_{rr}\ dr^{2}=(1-2/r)\ dt^{2}-dr/(1-2/r)=0}}}$

we get for lightlike radial paths

${\displaystyle {\rm {{\bar {r}}=dr/dt=\pm (r-2)/r}}}$

therefore the time by radius is

${\displaystyle {\rm {t=\int _{r_{1}}^{r_{2}}dr/{\bar {r}}=\pm (r_{1}+r_{2}-2\ln(r_{1}-2)+2\ln(r_{2}-2))}}}$

With the Gullstrand Painlevé line element

${\displaystyle {\rm {ds^{2}=g_{tt}\ dt^{2}+g_{rr}\ dr^{2}+2g_{tr}\ dt\ dr=(1-2/r)\ dt^{2}-dr-{\sqrt {8/r}}\ dr\ dt=0}}}$

we get for lightlike radial paths

${\displaystyle {\rm {{\bar {r}}=dr/dt=-1-{\sqrt {2/r}}\ ||\ 1-{\sqrt {2/r}}}}}$

therefore the time by radius is

${\displaystyle {\rm {t=\int _{r_{1}}^{r_{2}}dr/{\bar {r}}=r_{1}-2{\sqrt {2}}{\sqrt {r_{1}}}+4\ln \left({\sqrt {r_{1}}}+{\sqrt {2}}\right)-r_{2}+2{\sqrt {2}}{\sqrt {r_{2}}}-4\ln \left({\sqrt {r_{2}}}+{\sqrt {2}}\right)}}}$

for ingoing, and for outgoing rays

${\displaystyle {\rm {t=-r_{1}-2{\sqrt {2}}{\sqrt {r_{1}}}-2\ln(r_{1})-4\ln \left(1-{\sqrt {2/r_{1}}}\right)+r_{2}+2{\sqrt {2}}{\sqrt {r_{2}}}+2\ln(r_{2})+4\ln \left(1-{\sqrt {2/r_{2}}}\right)}}}$

With the Eddington Finkelstein line element

${\displaystyle {\rm {ds^{2}=g_{tt}\ dt^{2}+g_{rr}\ dr^{2}+2g_{tr}\ dt\ dr=(1-2/r)\ dt^{2}-(1+2/r)\ dr-4/r\ dr\ dt=0}}}$

we get for lightlike radial paths

${\displaystyle {\rm {{\bar {r}}=dr/dt=-1\ ||\ (r-2)/(r+2)}}}$

therefore the time by radius is

${\displaystyle {\rm {t=\int _{r_{1}}^{r_{2}}dr/{\bar {r}}=r_{1}-r_{2}}}}$

for ingoing, and for outgoing rays

${\displaystyle {\rm {t=-r_{1}-4\ln(r_{1}-2)+r_{2}+4\ln(r_{2}-2)}}}$

For the escape velocity we set ${\displaystyle {\rm {E=-p_{r}=g_{tt}\ dt/ds=1}}}$ and for photons ${\displaystyle {\rm {ds=0}}}$, then solve for ${\displaystyle {\rm {dr/dt}}}$.

In Droste coordinates we get

${\displaystyle {\rm {dr/dt=\pm (1-2/r){\sqrt {2/r}}}}}$

for the free falling worldlines with the positive and negative escape velocities.

The local velocity relative to the stationary observers is

${\displaystyle {\rm {v={\frac {dr}{dt}}\ {\sqrt {-{\frac {g_{rr}}{g_{tt}}}}}}}}$

so the time by radius is

${\displaystyle {\rm {\pm t=-{\frac {1}{3}}{\sqrt {2}}\left(r_{1}^{3/2}+6{\sqrt {r_{1}}}-{\sqrt {r_{2}}}(r_{2}+6)\right)+4\ arctanh{\sqrt {2/r_{1}}}-4\ arctanh{\sqrt {2/r_{2}}}}}}$

In Raindrop coordinates we get

${\displaystyle {\rm {{\frac {dr}{dt}}={\frac {r-2}{r+2}}\ {\sqrt {\frac {2}{r}}}\ ||-{\sqrt {\frac {2}{r}}}}}}$

which gives us

${\displaystyle {\rm {t={\frac {1}{3}}{\sqrt {2}}\left(r_{1}^{3/2}-r_{2}^{3/2}\right)\ ||\ -{\frac {1}{3}}{\sqrt {2}}\left(r_{1}^{3/2}+12{\sqrt {r_{1}}}-{\sqrt {r_{2}}}(r_{2}+12)\right)+8\ arctanh{\sqrt {2/r_{1}}}-8\ arctanh{\sqrt {2/r_{2}}}}}}$

In ingoing Eddington Finkelstein coordinates we get

${\displaystyle {\rm {{\frac {dr}{dt}}={\frac {{\sqrt {2}}\ (r-2)}{{\sqrt {8}}\pm r^{3/2}}}}}}$

therefore the time by radius is

${\displaystyle {\rm {t={\frac {1}{3}}{\sqrt {2}}\left(r_{1}^{3/2}+6{\sqrt {r_{1}}}-{\sqrt {r_{2}}}(r_{2}+6)\right)+2\ln \left({\frac {r_{2}-2}{r_{1}-2}}\right)-4\ arctanh{\sqrt {2/r_{1}}}+4\ arctanh{\sqrt {2/r_{2}}}}}}$

for ingoing geodesics, and for outgoing ones

${\displaystyle {\rm {t=-{\frac {1}{3}}{\sqrt {2}}\left(r_{1}^{3/2}+6{\sqrt {r_{1}}}-{\sqrt {r_{2}}}(r_{2}+6)\right)+2\ln \left({\frac {r_{2}-2}{r_{1}-2}}\right)+4\ arctanh{\sqrt {2/r_{1}}}-4\ arctanh{\sqrt {2/r_{2}}}}}}$

With the Schwarzschild Droste line element we get for the local velocity of ${\displaystyle {\rm {v=\pm v_{e}^{2}}}}$:

${\displaystyle {\rm {dr/dt=\pm (2r-4)/r}}}$

With the Gullstrand Painlevé line element we get

${\displaystyle {\rm {dr/dt={\frac {4-2r}{r^{2}-{\sqrt {8r}}}}\ ||\ {\frac {2r-4}{r^{2}+{\sqrt {8r}}}}}}}$

With the Eddington Finkelstein line element

${\displaystyle {\rm {ds^{2}=g_{tt}\ dt^{2}+g_{rr}\ dr^{2}+2g_{tr}\ dt\ dr=(1-2/r)\ dt^{2}-(1+2/r)\ dr-4/r\ dr\ dt}}}$

we get for the local velocity of ${\displaystyle {\rm {v=\pm v_{e}^{2}}}}$:

${\displaystyle {\rm {dr/dt=-{\frac {2}{r+2}}\ ||\ {\frac {2(r-2)}{r^{2}+4}}}}}$

The vectors of the ingoing null conguences in Schwarzschild Droste coordinates are

${\displaystyle {\rm {\{dt,\ dr\}=sign(r-2)\ \{1,\ 2/r-1\}}}}$

The vectors of the outgoing null conguences in Schwarzschild Droste coordinates are

${\displaystyle {\rm {\{dt,\ dr\}=\{1,\ 1-2/r\}}}}$

The vectors of free falling worldlines with the negative and positive escape velocity in Eddington Finkelstein coordinates are

${\displaystyle {\rm {\{dt,\ dr\}=\{1,\ {\sqrt {2}}(r-2)/({\sqrt {8}}\pm r^{3/2})\}}}}$

Here we simply have ${\displaystyle {\rm {t\to t}}}$.

For the Schwarzschild Droste timelines in Raindrop coordinates we have

${\displaystyle {\rm {t\to t-\left({\sqrt {8}}\left({\sqrt {r_{2}}}-{\sqrt {r_{1}}}\right)+4\ arctanh{\sqrt {2/r_{1}}}-4\ arctanh{\sqrt {2/r_{2}}}\right)}}}$

In Eddington Finkelstein coordinates the Schwarzschild Droste bookkeeper timelines are given by

${\displaystyle {\rm {t\to t-\ln \left({\frac {r_{2}^{2}-4}{r_{1}^{2}-4}}\right)}}}$

Natural units of ${\displaystyle {\rm {G=M=c=1}}}$ are used. Code and other coordinates: Source
