This app is perfect for train lovers, geography geeks, and travel enthusiasts. It's super specialized and does some pretty cool stuff. It'll let you know when you're getting close to where the Shinkansen and other train lines intersect, as well as major roads. It also gives you a heads up when there are other train stations nearby, plus cool spots like train depots, long tunnels, and big bridges. You can even find old abandoned train lines and cool landmarks. Basically, this app makes sure you don't miss any awesome views while you're traveling. And if you're into speed or geography, it's got you covered too! You can check out how fast the train is going, the highest speed it reached and where it happened, a list of speeds at each station so far, and even the names of nearby stations starting from the two closest ones to where you are right now. Oh, and it'll tell you the name of the city or town you're in too! Now you can have fun comparing speeds at different stations along your journey.

Just a heads up, this app relies on GPS, so it might not work perfectly in tunnels, underground spots, hilly areas, or crowded places with skyscrapers. Even if you're not actively using the app, it'll still send you notifications with little buzzes. That means it's gathering location info even when you're not using it or have it running in the background. This app supports these train lines: Tokaido-Sanyo Shinkansen, Tohoku Shinkansen, Joetsu Shinkansen, Kyushu Shinkansen, Hokuriku Shinkansen, and West Kyushu Shinkansen.

The app's performance relies on how good your smartphone's GPS is. GPS eats up a lot of battery, so it's a good idea to keep your device plugged in while using it for some peace of mind.
