Rail Six

Rail Six is a free, real-time GO Transit tracker built for GTHA commuters. Save your regular commute once and open the app to a live countdown to your next train or bus — no account, no ads, nothing to sign up for.

Your commute lives on your device. Set your service type, origin, destination, and return trip in a quick setup wizard, and the live board does the rest.
