Any good European train schedule apps out there for the iphone?
I'm looking for an iphone app for European train schedules and am finding there aren't many. The ones I find are:
iRail European Rail Timetables
Train Schedules Europe
There are few / if any reviews of the above apps. Has anyone used either one or fond another good one?
Thanks

www.bahn.de - the German Rail site with schedules for all of Europe does not have an app? If you can get e-mail then you could get it.

Well there can be none better IME than the bahn.de site - for Switzerland where you are going you can even get the platform numbers usually for your trains - where you change, like at Bern perhaps to get to Interlaken and Interlaken-Ost to go to Lauterbrunnen, etc.
I think it is fun to have the intermediate stops the train will make that bahn.de shows as you go along - tells you if you are running late, etc.

Next I'm going to look into how much it costs me to use my iphone in Europe. That will probably kill the joy.
According to this page http://www.wireless.att.com/learn/in...d-packages.jsp it will cost me $200 a month for 200 MB...I usually use 500 MB a month. sigh....
Maybe I'll just print out the schedules...ha!

Often in places like Switzerland you need only print out one schedule and then look and see that that schedule will be repeated exactly at the same times every hour throughout the day - even in Italy this is often true on the high-speed lines, but not in France which I believe is your other country.
