Don’t waste download space

The entire app of saved locations is blank. It’s quite annoying and no point in having a useless app.
Never works.

Stopped working

Used to be great, stopped loading schedules about a month ago and nothing has fixed it

So sad

Recently stopped working

Does not work

The app no longer works

Improvements

It’s generally accurate. Generally, it will say trains are arriving much sooner than they actually are.
