  1. UK folks, is there a good app JUST for tracking a particular train journey that might include multiple changes?

    I currently use the Trainline app for this. I like it for the journey tracker because it's great for showing when a train is running late, how long I'll have to change trains, if I'm going to miss a change, stuff like that.

    However, I would like to ditch Trainline, because it's asking for my age to work out how much to charge me for tickets and I literally never use it to buy tickets!

    Edit: Sorry for the misunderstanding - it's not just that I don't want to enter my age, but that's kind of a last-straw illustration that the app is not as suited to my needs as I'd like. So, just lying about my age HAS already occurred to me, and also I would like an app that focuses on journey tracking and not buying tickets.

  6. I knew the people behind #RealTimeTrains must be nerds, but I didn't expect them to slip an #XKCD reference into the website footer.
