On Rails: Train Times & Widget

On Rails: Train Times & Widget puts live UK train times at your fingertips, covering every National Rail station with real-time departures, delays, and journey planning. Stop hunting for departure information—get instant access to platforms, service status, and travel updates from your home screen.

Track your daily commute with powerful widgets that display upcoming departures and delays at a glance. Colour-coded indicators instantly show whether trains are on time, delayed, or cancelled. Tap any service to dive into full details: fastest options, operator information, coach loading, toilet availability, and precise arrival estimates. Rearrange favourite stations by dragging or remove them with a swipe—your layout, your way.

Find nearby stations in seconds and browse their live departure boards. Mark your regular routes as favourites, and the app remembers recently departed services so you can quickly check what you just missed. Switch effortlessly between departure and arrival views, or toggle between origin and destination perspectives. With a subscription (including a free trial), auto-switching kicks in based on your location—the app automatically shows departures when you're leaving and arrivals when you're approaching your destination.

The Journey Planner handles complex multi-station trips across UK mainland. Set a specific departure or arrival time, filter for direct trains only, avoid or route through particular stations, and reroute instantly if services are disrupted. Compare journey durations side by side, check live platforms and calling points, and plan with confidence. Unlimited Journey Planner access comes with a subscription.

Home screen widgets bring live train information right to your lock screen or home page. Configure refresh intervals to suit your rhythm, switch between departures and arrivals without opening the app, and jump straight to station search or nearby stations. Widgets are subscription-enabled (free trial available).

All data flows directly from UK train operators under licence from National Rail Enquiries, ensuring accuracy and real-time reliability. The app includes live TFL Tube status integration, letting you check London Underground service in one place. Ad-free design and fast performance mean you get the information you need without clutter or delays.

On Rails: Train Times & Widget transforms how you navigate Britain's railway network—whether you're a daily commuter or planning a one-off journey.
