Train Track
Never get stuck behind a train again
The service we are calling Train Track, is a service that is designed to send consumers a notification of traffic impeding trains near their location. This would be accomplished by setting up a network of sensors and detectors within a city’s railroad system. It would then alert consumers through an app, based on their user preferences such as location and time.
This product would allow consumers to be able to avoid trains and make it to their desired location on time, without fear of getting caught behind a train. This is a great way to optimize the consumers time in an efficient way.
