Station Master

Created by two-times Guinness World Record Holder for travelling to all Tube stations in the fastest time possible, and winner of the 2013 TfL Accessible App competition.

Screenshot 1Station Master is the definitive travel reference App for London, with facts and figures collected from every station on the Underground, Overground and Docklands Light Railway networks.

It's available now on the App Store for iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch - and has the the most up-to-date accurate information over any other App available.

To collect the extensive data for this App, we visited all the stations on the TfL transport network in London and counted every step on every staircase. We catalogued all the facilities, travelled on all the escalators and in the lifts, explored every publicly accessible part of every station and collected all the knowledge that was humanly possible. And then wrapped it all up into a nice App for you – which is why we think it’s worth every penny that it costs to buy.

No cellular data or Wi-Fi connectivity is needed to make the App work - meaning you can look things up whilst travelling on a train underground. Please note it is also not a route planning App!

Londonist"It's a real geek’s guide to the Tube. You will, in effect, become The Station Master - A hero with the power to preternaturally bypass queues of tourists in a single bound."

"And it has a unique feature - 3D maps of the stations, fascinating in their own right, but also a helpful means to finding underground shortcuts, or a cunning lift or stairwell that can get you to the concourse quicker than the escalators. The maps are particularly helpful for those with special accessibility needs".
