Description

See the board, be on time

Welcome to NexTrain, your source for live UK train status updates.

Have you ever stood at the end of a platform, wondering whether your train might be late, not being able to see the display board?  Left your glasses at home and can't read the screens? Ever been in a crowded station standing by the gates for platform 3 to get your favourite seat, knowing your train normally leaves from there but you can't see the board so you're not sure?   Still in the office, wondering if you should make a run for it?

We have the answer! NexTrain brings the station display board right to you, minute by minute, using the same train updates that power the display boards themselves - National Rail Enquiries. Our goal is to bring you the same experience you can benefit from at the platform, but in your hand.

Why NexTrain?
• Instant departure board for your chosen station
• Powered by National Rail Enquiries, the same service that drives the UK's station display boards
• Choose from over 2,500 stations in England, Wales and Scotland or use the handy 'near me' button to find your nearest station
• Departures list with platform information so you can see where your train will depart, its calling points, number of coaches and whether it’s on time
• Tilt the phone into landscape to show a station display board giving you the next trains departing from your chosen platform
• The familiar experience you get when looking at the actual display boards at stations

We hope you enjoy using our app and would love to hear some feedback

It’s perfectly simple ☺️

I’ve been hoping for an app like this for years as I often catch the train to visit family (not in the lockdown don’t worry) and it’s just like having the board you have in a train station, in your hands! It’s easy to use and perfect for quickly checking when your train is due to arrive! All it needs is announcements which I’m sure will come soon 😉

Great Handy Wee App.

Love the app. which gives you the information you need when you’re about to walk round for a train or planning which one to get and how long it is until the next one showing whether it’s on time or delayed.

Very accommodating developer as well who is very open to ideas for updates.

Delighted CRS search has been added already in an update.

Beautiful but not accurate

I really love the look and feel about the app as it is accurately presenting the real train departure board. However sometimes it isn't accurate. For example I was at London Bridge station and I think either its time table is an hour difference to the actual summer time or train info is missing between pages when pressing 30 mins button. It could be a deal breaker for me as I don't want to miss a train. Please fix it.

Developer Response ,

Hi and thanks for reviewing NexTrain. The app shows 20 services based on the selected time so yes its possible that it doesn't cover the full 30 mins at busy mainline stations. Our data usage is limited (to keep NexTrain free) but we'll see if we can improve this particular situation, please bear with us 😊🚈
