About Where's My Train? PATCO Sched

PATCO's website is horrible for looking up train schedules and departure times; they make you download a PDF just to view timings.

This is a handy PATCO schedule app that lists train departures for any given station, at any given day, in either direction.

Where's my train?? So if you've ever found yourself waiting and waiting for that train, wondering why it isn't here yet, or if you're just looking to plan your trip better, this app is a must.

What are users saying about Where's My Train? PATCO Sched

N70%
by N####:

Works as advertised, and has the most updated PATCO schedules as far as I can tell. I use this on morning and evening commutes and it's accurate. "PATCO Updates" doesn't appear to render the Twitter feed, which I think is the intent, instead I get a "Latest PATCO Updates" textbox and OK button. "See Special Schedules" was previously causing a crash on my phone, but now appears to be working and fetching a link to the cursed Special Schedules PDF file (nice work!) "Favorites" functionality would be much welcomed, with the ability to save my Morning and Evening commutes. Using GPS Location to select nearest station by default would also be appreciated.

by N####:

PATCO schedules change frequently. This app does not record last minute changes, however, it does provide the user with a near accurate schedule. Do Not Use: If you require to the minute accuracy!

Posted time is inaccurate. Uninstall.

I've relied on this for accurate schedules and have missed trains and waited for over 20 minutes because of the innaccuracies.

maybe its me but I got this app and thought "What a great idea". I compared it to the PATCO downloaded PDF schedule for today (Sunday 2/16/2014) -- was way off, some times were right but not the majority. I uninstalled it.

Completely incorrect schedules. Do not use this app! Download "RailMe" instead

The UI is pretty plain and ugly but I could look past that if the data were ever correct.

The app is clean. Quite simple. I would have removed the ad banner. But the real deal breaker, the data is not up-to-date. PATCO has a different schedule for different weekdays, and the app still shows the same schedule from Monday through Friday. Uninstalling it

X70%
by X####:

Easy to use for the most part. The schedules, however, aren't always accurate. For instance, there is no train departing at 7:15 from Philadelphia tonight (Sunday). My friend waited 20 minutes at the platform with her young children due to this misinformation.

Why doesnt patco have their own app? Bad data.

Z70%
by Z####:

PATCO changed their schedule (again) so this was a good chance to test this app. Not only was it wrong about the current schedule but about what the schedule used to be. If I'm still asking where is my train with this app then it is a failed app.

The schedules are no longer current.

by A####:

Easy to use app, but lately PATCO's schedule is changing constantly due to track construction and this app doesn't reflect the current schedule changes. You need to look up each individual day of the week rather than just a tab for Mon - Fri as the times per day can and have changed. I actually missed a train & was late to work because if this app's inaccuracy. Hate to say it, but the iPhone's app is better.

Thanks for including special schedules. Necessary lately.

Doesn't have the REAL schedule. Needs to be updated to reflect the construction schedule. Download the pdf from patco.

Cant even deliver a valid up to date schedule for 2 years. why bother having this app? I uninstalled

Wong schedule. Patco updated it September 15, 2014. Useless app.

J70%

New schedule issued May 30th, app info does not reflect this. Would be fine if it were updated.

I work for Patco, this was great.... until recently. Now it doesn't work with their new schedule

Pretty perfect. App does exactly what I want it to do!

I really like the app, but the ad at the bottom blocks the time for the latest return train.

T70%
by T####:

Yes this app gives you the times for patco in general, but patco rarely runs on time. Moreover, there is CONSTANTLY trackwork going on, and this app never has the updated schedule. There needs to be a realtime patco app.

T70%
by T####:

Convenient and easy!

D70%
by D####:

Best app ever

T70%

PATCO needs to pay you for this. The fact that they don't have their own app is embarrassing.

T70%
by T####:

@devone: I already provide the alternate track schedules. Go to menu and hit 'special schedules'

I70%
by I####:

Nice idea however anyone who rides PATCO know they run an adjusted schedule pretty much every day due to track work. If this app could access that schedule that would be great.
