Description
RailChecker is an app that can tell you everything you need to know about your rail journey. Train times, train lengths and formations*, train crowding* - it's all here.
Everything in your hands
All the data is made available to you through RailChecker. The data comes from National Rail Enquiries, so it will be the same as the information shown on platform displays.
Pin your regular stations and trains
You can pin the stations and services you use the most so that you can access departure boards and service information respectively with just one press of a button.
Plan your journey
Planning journeys has been made very easy in the app. Enter your origin and destination stations and the app will return to you the fastest possible route.
Stay in the know when things go wrong
Standing on a cold platform not knowing what is going on is a thing of the past. RailChecker can tell you the reason for the delay of your service, and also show you service disruption for your regular train operators.
Powered by National Rail Enquiries.
* Select operators and services only.

Ratings and Reviews
Nice idea and confident app but doesn’t work properly
Loads of ads. Only one subscription option, no option to buy the app outright or annual. If it can’t find services it doesn’t report back why like strike action, etc. this leaves you with a sense the app is not working properly. Would be useful if the ads were limited to a single place. Ads that get in the way of functionality get deleted quickly. Elements like “show calling points” why not display the calling time next to each stop rather than make the user clock through the extra step. This page could simply be loaded into the drop down. App doesn’t preload any data into list views. It pulls the data in realtime so this will delay and cause delays over cellular networks. As soon as you type the stations it should begin to preload. The app is also not stateful so doesn’t remember the times when you go back. The fact it links the displays pages together indicates this should happen but doesn’t. Pinning a journey simply doesn’t always happen either which is infuriating when you have to keep adding the date and time back in. Sloppy coding.
