I've just got an i-phone and wonder if there are any apps available for European railways like there are in Britain for timetables, live departures etc. In particular I wonder if there's one for Belgium as I go there a lot: the NMBS website is not helpful.

Deutsche Bahn's Navigator for Android, iPhone and Blackberry is a popular one.

It covers all of Europe including the UK for timetable information, and covers live train running information in Germany and surrounding areas in neighbouring countries. You can also book tickets.

SNCB/NMBS and NS offer basic apps for iPhone which provide timetable information in Belgium and the Netherlands respectively.

Just search in the iTunes Store.

Just uploaded it. Not had chance to look yet, but it's free as well! Thanks!

And the NMBS one as well also free - didn't realise you'd added to original post.

I prefer the Swiss one, seartch for SBB Mobile, timetable wise its covers the same as the DB one, but I think its a better layout

Thanks I'll try that one as well. Then I can have a nice day tomorrow deciding which is best.

Do they take up a lot of memory, or shall I just leave them all on? (I'm not one of these people who will have apps showing where their nearest KFC is, and I won't have any games etc.)

Mobile sites are also good for timetable and live departures e.g.

m.nmbs.be
m.ns.nl
m.sbb.ch
m.bahn.de
