Customer Reviews

Not very useful, particularly in Northeast (1 star)
It seems that two of the largest commuter railroads in the country are missing! Where's New York's Metro North and Long Island Railroad? Why are freight lines attributed to Amtrak only just because Amtrak runs a over them?
Labeling track ownership, trackage rights, tonnage volume, yards, major interchange points, abandoned historic routes are some of the data that would to make this app interesting.

Crashes immediately (1 star)
I loved this app until it stopped working. After last upgrade, it crashes immediately. Tried unloading and reloading. No luck. Don't buy until this is fixed. Then I will give it five stars
again.

Nice! (4 stars)
I've been wanting such an app for awhile. Now it's easier for a train novice such as myself to locate where the rails and stations are.

Note to developer: The VTA lines in Santa Clara County have expanded in the last seven years. There are now lines to Winchester station (terminus) in Campbell and to the Alum Rock station (terminus) in San Jose.

One little bug I noticed is when turning "Freight" on in the display
