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).
