Highball: Train Spotter

Store description excerpt

Highball shows you exactly when trains are arriving near you. Whether you're a railfan, a parent with a kid who loves trains, or just standing near the tracks wondering what's coming — Highball puts live train data in your pocket. LIVE TRAIN TRACKING See every train operating near you with real-time arrival countdowns. The hero timer shows the next train at a glance — no timetables to decode. INTERACTIVE MAP Watch trains move in real time with directional arrows showing which way they're heading. Tap any train for route details, speed, and ETA. When multiple trains overlap, swipe through the chip bar to select one. SPOT LOG Spot trains you see and build your collection. Every spot records the train number, route, time, and your location. Earn badges as you go — from Rookie to Train Master. NOTIFICATIONS Get alerted when a train is approaching within 15 minutes. Works even when the app is in the background so you never miss one.
