Useful Train App - Dublin RTR

Was looking around on the App Store this morning and found what looks like a useful application if you use the trains a lot in Dublin.

Anyone using it?

As a train user, I would be interested.

However, I would prefer if the developers offered an option to try before you buy.

Ok, 79 cents isn't going to break the bank, but I like to try things out before I buy.

Tis true, tis true. I downloaded an anniversary app called Special Day. You're recommended to download another free app called Remind Me to get automatic reminders.

But when I downloaded it onto my Mac, it couldn't find Special Day, and to buy it would cost another dollar or so.

I sent a couple of emails to the developer and heard nothing. Not a major sorrow in my life, but I'm still annoyed to have wasted a little money.

Looks pretty good - very basic - but rightly so.

Matches the times exactly with the DART's website Realtime timetable, which I guess is what it's meant to do.

My only gripe is there isn't a way to display northbound/southbound trains only.

I picked it up last night and I agree it's basic looking but does the job.

I guess the author could have restricted the number of stations for a free version and charge for the full one, but at 79c I'm not really complaining.
