It’s been a while since our last proper update. Since the last update, I hired a new systems engineer (Chris), have done substantial charity work in Africa, RailMiles was finally relaunched and over the last six months we have been continuing to develop Realtime Preserved Trains into a proper product. We’re also working on updates to Realtime Trains itself, as we have been since the last major update in August 2013.

It’s been quite some time since the last update to Realtime Trains as development has slowly been progressing. RailMiles was recently relaunched as well. It’s been a rather busy few years and the time has come that I’m now looking for someone new to join the crew here at Swlines Ltd.

swlines Ltd is pleased to announce the successful first test of a new reporting system for Realtime Trains this past Saturday, during HST prototype power car 41001’s first passenger run in over 35 years on “The Screaming Valenta” tour, from Ruddington to Loughborough and back via the Great Central Railway (Nottingham.)

 It has taken longer than than we expected but we are pleased to announce the release of Realtime Trains for iPhone. Realtime Trains for iPhone is available now on the App Store for £2.99. We’ve also reduced the price of our Android app, on Google Play, by 25% to £2.99. The iPhone app brings many of the features of our Android app, and website, to a native app for iOS 7.

 We are excited to announce the release of Realtime Trains for Android, the first in a series of mobile apps. Realtime Trains for Android is available on Google Play for £3.99, starting today! It brings many of the features that we integrated into our website, relaunched last month, into a native app available on your phone.
