Tracking, History, Railcams, and Travel Trends. Designed for iPhone.
There are websites for tracking Amtrak and VIA Rail Canada trains—but they’re not built for iPhone. That’s why we created Train Tracker Pro.
See trains live on an interactive map, view how the map looked at any time in the past 14 days, check the top 5 fastest and most delayed trains, and get easy access to over 250 live railcams across North America—all for free.
In History Mode, relive any moment from the past 14 days—including which trains were fastest, most delayed, and where they were on the map at that time.
Customize your experience in Settings: show Amtrak, VIA Rail, or both; switch between standard and satellite maps; see your location on the map; and choose light or dark themes for the app.
Start a 7-day free trial or subscribe (weekly, monthly, or yearly) to unlock additional premium features:
• Follow up to 5 trains at once on your iPhone lock screen and in the Apple Watch Smart Stack; and go to a train’s location on the map by tapping the Live Activity on your iPhone lock screen
• Get real-time weather and temperature at each train’s location
• View timetables for active trains and historical timetables for any point in the past 14 days
• Travel Trends for every train and any station pair along the route showing average, shortest, and longest travel times plus on-time performance. Travel Trends data is available for at least the past 60 days and can be customized to the timeframe you want to view — from a single day to days, weeks, or months at a time
• Get train status from Siri by saying, “Siri, ask Train Tracker Pro”
• Customize Fastest and Most Delayed Trains lists to show 5, 10, 20, or all trains
• See train speeds and train-specific Amtrak and VIA Rail travel alerts from any moment in the last two weeks
Search by train name or train number to find any train instantly. Tap a train on the map to see its details, slide the timetable up to view scheduled and estimated/actual departure and arrival times, and tap the scope button to quickly focus the timetable on the next stop.
With its elegant, map-centric design, Train Tracker Pro makes it easy to explore trains across North America on your iPhone. Download today and see why travelers and rail enthusiasts love it!
