Trackwise: UK Train Tracker

Trackwise puts every train running in Great Britain on a live map, and is honest about what it knows: every time on screen says whether it was reported, forecast or estimated.

LIVE MAP
• Every train in England, Scotland and Wales, at any zoom: dots across the country, then drawn to scale on the real track, in their operator's colours, as you zoom in.
• Trains glide along the line between reports, so the map never sits still.
• Tap a train to follow it at street level, with its route, times and how far along it is.

STATION BOARDS
• Departures, arrivals and passing trains for any station, at any date and time.
• See at a glance whether each train is on time, at the platform or not running yet, plus its type, carriages and platform, with platform changes highlighted.
• Live disruption messages, powered by National Rail Enquiries.

JOURNEYS
• Every stop with booked, actual and expected times, including delays, skipped stops, joins and splits.
• The train drawn side-on in its livery, with its unit number and carriages.
• "Show on map" draws the journey: solid where the train has been, dashed ahead.

YOUR COMMUTE
• Save the train you take and Trackwise watches it for you, even with the app closed.
• You're alerted if it's late, cancelled, won't call at your stations or changes platform, in a notification laid out like a ticket, with Track and View buttons.
• Get its status an hour, 30, 15, 10 and 5 minutes before it leaves (you choose which).
• A reliability score for that exact train, e.g. "more than 10 minutes late on 11 of the last 20 weekdays".
• During your commute, the app opens straight on your train.

SEARCH
• Stations by name or code, headcodes (2F45), unit and loco numbers (231004) and whole classes (Class 231).
• Every direct train between two stations, today or tomorrow.
• Browse the fleet and put every working unit of a class on the map.

MAKE IT YOURS
• Pick the train in the launch intro: Trackwise's own, a Class 231 FLIRT bound for Bargod, the Flying Wiseman in steam, or a pump trolley worked by its crew, through night, countryside or Eryri scenery.
• Light and dark themes, favourite stations, and freight on or off.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No account, no ads, no analytics.
• Your settings, favourites and commute stay on your phone.
• Location is optional, used on your phone only to centre the map with "Near me".
