I got tired of being directed to the horrific mobile version of the tranz metro website when looking up the time of the next train, so i actually did something about it and wrote an app.

It's just been published and you can find it at

If you can think of any features you want added feel free to suggest them here.

Looks like the target market is bigger than I thought, just passed 25 downloads!

Well done on your creation. I hope you get plenty of takers.

What make of phone are you using? I use the Nokia Public Transport app, that works pretty well. I'm using Symbian, I'm guessing there's a Windows version.

Does the Nokia Transport app pull Tranz Metro services as well?

Great job.

I use Android myself, so am stuck with the terrible official Tranzmetro app which doesn't even work on ICS.

I am sure you will get many downloads!

Just a quick update for everyone. I no longer catch the train or have a windows phone 7 phone, so I've put the code up at https://github.com/C4NCER/Wellington-Trains if anyone wants to make updates. (or fix the bug where it crashes if the phone loses network connection while making a web request ;) ).

The app will stay up on the marketplace and if anyone adds a good code change I'm happy to compile a new version and push it to the market.
