Can't find the map legend/key/symbol box anymore would be nice if in the next update it was made more obvious again. Otherwise I feel it's an excellent app for looking up abandoned railroad lines in North America.

Great app for locating former right of ways. The location function is a nice touch. I've been recommending it to a lot of rail fans. I was wondering when we will see the lines on the satellite view?

Shows all railroads even the abandoned !!

Excellent rail maps especially for finding abandoned rail lines of years ago!

Indispensable for anybody with an interest in railroad history. If I am traveling and see a rail line, a quick look at my phone tells me who owns the line now and who was the classic owner. (e.g. NS former Nickel Plate). If I am looking for an old station, I can see the path of abandoned lines and narrow my search.

Map shows me going in the opposite direction I'm actually going... when I'm going north it's moving south...

Only somewhat accurate for my area. There's a number of spur and mine lines that aren't shown on the app. But I know that they were once there. As well as a yard bypass and roundhouse lead.

It does not load at all... I go into the app and there's no map, just a black screen with buttons around the screen. I have tried letting it load for over 15 minutes but with no good outcome.

15 minutes is all it took to make me uninstall. WAY too many ads. I miss the old days when software wasn't used as a vehicle to deliver ads first, and it's purpose last.
