## Next Train Home Description
Next Train Home shows one thing: the fastest train home (or to work), at any time.

I built it for my own Thameslink commute. The next train is often a long list of slow, less slow, semi-fast, fast and faster, and the first one you can catch can take far longer than one leaving a few minutes later. This app always puts the train that gets you there soonest at the top.

It is not a route planner. Other apps do that well. This is the simple one, and it is free for everyone.

How it works:

- set your Home and Work stations once
- add an optional backup station, used automatically when your usual station has no trains, for example if it is closed
- results are always ordered by earliest arrival
- it works out whether you are heading home or to work from where you are, or from the time of day if you prefer not to share location
- swap direction in one tap
- live departure time, expected arrival, platform, operator and status (on time, delayed or cancelled)

No accounts, no tabs, no clutter.
