UK Train Times provides real-time journey planning for journeys across the National Rail network and live departure information for all National Rail stations. This is a fully-licensed application powered by National Rail Enquiries’ real-time data feeds. The app was previously known as “National Rail Enquiries for iPhone”.
FEATURES:
- Powerful real-time journey planner for single or return journeys across the National Rail network, with departure platform information (where available).
- ‘Next Train Home’ feature automatically finds your nearest station and plans your journey home.
- If you’re searching for trains today, you’ll be told about any delays or cancellations to your chosen trains and given the option to find alternative journeys.
- Live departures and arrivals at all National Rail stations, with platform information (where available*) and live train progress.
- Add multiple stations to the app’s Home Screen for one-touch access to their live departures. Simply choose a station in ‘Live Departures & Arrivals’ and hit ‘Save’ to create a new favourite.
- Automatically find your nearest stations or select one of your recently used stations, and then find directions via the iPhone’s Maps application.
You can view a full demonstration of the application on YouTube, or at nationalrail.co.uk/iphone .
Please note that the Live Departure and Journey Planner features require an active mobile network connection when starting a new search, but Journey Planner search results are automatically saved for use when outside of mobile network coverage.
* Platform number information is not available for all stations in UK Train Times. To find out if a particular station will display platform numbers in the application’s “Live Departures & Arrivals” section, please view that station in the Live Departures and Arrivals section of the nationalrail.co.uk web site. If platform information is displayed on the web site, it will also be displayed in UK Train Times.

Read this before purchasing this app
This app is very disappointing. I paid the very expensive price of £4.99, and it doesn't do anything that you can't do on your normal web browser, there's no facility to be able to purchase a ticket, the train line app, is far superior, much more information and you can actually purchase your ticket through the app
Great App but now free alternatives
This is a great app and I have been using it for well over a year now. However, with the upgrade to the mobile national rail website [http://m.nationalrail.co.uk] and the introduction of the trainline app this is now very over priced. Have a go with the free options first...
4 star functionality, 2 star price: 3 star overall...
Decent app!
Must say this quite handy!. I can check the trains current location on the line so I know what time leave so I'm not waiting around. It even tells you the platform!. Good App
