User reviews

Love this app. So I first got it about a year ago and up till then had struggled with identifying as a train enthusiast. None of my friends or family appreciate a locomotive in the same way I do, and always have. Often I would feel lonely and isolated on platforms and hated the rude comments that do occasionally come our way. But then jump forward and genuinely this app has brought me happiness and like minded friends. It's given me way more confidence to stand on platforms.

Absolute rubbish App. One week on from receiving it as a gift and still can't access content. Keeps asking you to log in when you are logged in. Takes days to get a response and still no help. Don't waste your money on this, it's rubbish. They will probably respond to this with the usual "we are sorry to hear that you are having trouble blah blah", just get the App sorted.
