On Rails is a beautifully designed, intuitive app that provides live departure and arrival times for the next two hours at all National Rail stations — and lets you plan journeys across all UK mainland stations.

Quickly find nearby stations and view their real-time departure boards.
Mark favourites, track recently departed services, and access live updates on trains.
Favourites appear as cards on the home screen — easily rearranged by dragging or removed with a swipe.

Colour-coded indicators clearly show whether trains are on time, delayed, or cancelled.
Effortlessly switch between departures, arrivals, and origin/destination views.

Auto-switching between origin and destination based on your location is available with a subscription — free trial included.

Get helpful details such as fastest train options, train operator, number of coaches, toilet availability, journey time, and arrival estimates (where data is available).

Still the best app for train times. No ads just clean info. new journey planner alone makes the small subscription totally worth it plus includes the widget.

Purchased access for the widget. Now unable to use it - just says "your subscription has cancelled or expired". Basically, it now demands to be purchased again

Why have you changed the app? the dashboard as you now call it is way too cluttered and is just more info to scroll through, it was much better before.

So far unconvinced. I wanted an app with a widget (as for some inexplicable reason NR just stopped theirs). However both widget AND app showing ALL services from my selected favourite (home and work) stations. I've seen 2 people say the same then seem satisfied as they resolved it. I've tried about everything in both app and widget and it really is not that obvious at all. This shouldn't be this difficult surely.

I could give it more stars but I cannot find how to change the stations shown in the widget. This is very frustrating. What would be most useful for me is for the widget to default to the nearest station and also permit input of one or two stations (from X to Y) to see those services. Then tap on any service in the widget to see details of just that service.

I commute by train daily, and I finally found this perfect app for tracking my trains! The UI is simple, clear, informative and responsive. Love the home screen widget, which sets this app apart from all other similar apps that I've tried. It's a no brainer for me to pay for the full package. Thanks for this amazing app!

I just re-installed app. My apologies - it was Boards that had the unappealing layout. A good app that does what it says I have just re-re-installed app and I quite like it. Bear in mind the two-tier approach train companies have, which smaller stations having a poor/no service in critical situations, If app could show from work station only trains to home station then it would get a five star from me... It does! As promised, 5 stars!

Good app & widget, which would have been a suitable replacement for the failing 'National Rail' app, however; 1) the widget is not free (£4), 2) apparently there is a need for an additional 'commuters pack' for some functionality (I'm currently in a trial period). These two points alone will make this a deal breaker, as soon as I need to pay more for this app/widget. 3) The widget often won't refresh on my Note 9.. *Edit* The widget won't work with any level of power saving mode turned on.
