Nearest station, automatically
Next Trains uses your device location to identify the closest station and sort nearby stations by distance, so you can get to the right departure board faster.
Custom commute routes

Quick refresh
Refresh fast to keep departure boards current when timings change or when you want a fresh check before heading to the platform.
