Main Menu
The goal of OneTouchTrain (sm) is to enable one to find the schedule for a train on their favorite route of travel with minimum effort. Depending on conditions, this could be accomplished by merely starting the app.
How is this done? After installing the app, you define your favored route(s) of travel and then configure the Options to put OneTouchTrain (sm) in Auto mode on startup. That is it.
Now whenever OneTouchTrain (sm) is started, if the prevailing conditions permit, you will be presented with a visual display (and audio)) of the next available trains. If conditions do not allow, you can always nudge things along with the touch of a button.
[Add Favorite Trip]

[Find Favorite Train]
