    Anyone know of an app, similar to Flight Radar, where you can track the progress of a UK train? Want to know where it is at any given time.

    I just searched for one and it doesn’t look like quite what I want. Suggestions welcome.

    Create your own. Every time you travel on a train, hide an Apple AirTag. It'll take some time, but eventually, Voila! :)

    Trainline app shows you what stop you're at if wanting a specific train...

    Thanks but the one from Pompey Red is just what I need. We’re collecting my other half’s sister at York this afternoon so just need to know the train’s position so we don’t go into the car park too soon

    “Railboard” and “trains” apple apps have their uses too for tracking live arrivals expectations…
