TrainsFYI: Train Tracking

Live train tracking for 130+ rail networks worldwide. Watch real trains glide across 3D satellite maps in real time, right on your Apple TV.

TrainsFYI turns your Apple TV into a living, real-time map of the world's rail networks. Watch commuter trains, intercity expresses, and metro cars move along their actual routes, rendered on a 3D satellite landscape with cinematic camera angles. Leave it on during dinner, keep an eye on your evening commute, or just watch the network breathe.

Built for railfans and transit lovers, TrainsFYI is a window into the moving rail system rather than a trip planner or ticketing app. No accounts. No ads. No clutter.
