Why install it?
Quick access
Open from your home screen or app list without searching the browser.
Standalone window
Runs in an app-like window without the usual browser chrome when installed.
Everything in one place
Rail Explorer, Live trains and the Brake Calculator — the full site, not a single tool.
This is a Progressive Web App for the website. It is not distributed through the App Store or Google Play, and it does not provide full offline video, push notifications or background live tracking.
Troubleshooting
I cannot see the install option
Use a supported browser (Safari on iPhone/iPad; Chrome or Edge on Android/desktop). Refresh the page, or follow the manual steps for your device. Some browsers hide install until you have visited the site a few times.
The page opened inside Facebook/YouTube/Gmail
In-app browsers often cannot install PWAs. Open the link in Safari (iOS) or Chrome (Android), then return to this page.
I already installed it
Open Railroading with JM from your home screen or app list. If you are already in the installed app, you will see a short confirmation at the top of this page.
How do I remove it?
Remove it like any other home-screen or installed app: long-press the icon on mobile, or uninstall from your computer’s app list / browser’s installed apps settings. Exact steps vary by device.
