UK National Rail app available for iPhone

National Rail has finally released an official iPhone app that allows users to access real-time information for all overground trains in England, Wales, and Scotland. National Rail Enquiries is more than just a journey scheduler, according to the company. The app allows users to track trains in real time, find out about disruptions and delays (which, as any UK traveler knows, happens frequently), and even allows you to re-plan your journey mid-trip.

The reviews aren't very good.

I'm a bit confused. I thought that NRE had already had a paid app available for iPhone for a few years? Is this one a new and expanded version?

I generally use thetrainline.com's free iPhone app for checking train times, but never for purchasing tickets.
