Train Tracker Pro vs GO VIA

Train Tracker Pro lets you track Amtrak and VIA Rail Canada trains with live locations, interactive timetables, real-time weather at trains’ locations, train-specific travel alerts, travel trends, Siri integration, and Live Activities to follow trains on your lock screen and in the Apple Watch Smart Stack. You can head out to the rails with just a tap on the map because Train Tracker Pro gives you access to over 250 public live railcams across North America. We’re continually adding to and curating the list of cameras to ensure its accuracy. Missed seeing a train? We've got you covered! Enter History mode, see when a train went by the camera, and rewind the camera to that point in time. The app also includes a 14-day history of train locations, speeds, timetables, and travel alerts. Enter History mode, choose a time, and the map displays exactly as it appeared at that time. Viewing detailed train data, travel alerts, and timetables in Live or History mode requires a 7-day free trial or a subscription.
