Trainboard takes on iSEPTA with regional rail iPhone app
There’s a new SEPTA app in town.
We must confess, ever since iSEPTA, we have been hard pressed to find a Philadelphia transit iPhone application that we would actually, you know, use on a daily basis. As of now, the Apple App store is mostly filled with nationally-focused apps that offer a Philadelphia version, such as iTransitBuddy.
Trainboard (iTunes link), however, is locally produced by Patrick Casady, as Caffeine Fish, out of his apartment near Girard College. Casady maintains the company part-time as a side project.
“New York has really good transit apps, but I looked at Philly’s selection and it sucked,” says the Drexel grad.
