Ratings and reviews

Thanks for making this app! As I travel, I have become more observant, and a look at the countryside quickly reveals former lines. For example, a long straight run of scrub trees. So I knew these lines existed, but I didn't know who the owners were. I wish that there were more maps like this of early transportation. Especially of the interurbans, and the telegraph lines, which later followed the railroad right of ways almost as a rule, but not the earlier ones. All the Best! 73 DE W8LV BILL

It works great off line, when you preload the location you need ahead of time, you need wifi to load the location. It doesn't work if you're out in the field and want to put in a new location. Works better than the other app, that you start at your current home location and use your finger to move to a new location, no named locations to help you find what you need.

This app is AMAZING. Not only do you get to see your current, past, and abandoned railroads in your area, it shows everything in an easy to understand manner. Not everything is perfect, but it doesn't have to be when trying to get a relative idea of what tracks were or are located near you. This is my go-to to answer questions, find stuff, and do a quick browse.
