Miami-Dade Transit Mobile App and Optimal Schedule would have worked today

Today I took the 6:55am Green train from DLS to TRI.  I arrived right on time at TRI waited about 10 minutes and am now on the 7:40 train which arrived at TRI on time at 7:49.

The Miami Dade Transit Mobil app is excellent.  There is a real-time updates feature.  I was able to 'watch' the 7:00 Orange train arrive at MIA on time.  The 7:00am Orange train would have worked today.  I am on the same train now that I would have been on if I had taken the Orange 7:00am so it does not make a difference on when I get to work.  However, I had to stand around at the TRI station for 10 minutes instead of sitting down on the train at MIA.

Check out these screen shots from the MDT Mobile App.  This app is better than the Tr-Rail mobile app which does not have this realtime tracker feature

The MDT Mobile App allows you to see the next trains in realtime.

 The Real-Time Map feature lets you see the trains in real-time, it refreshes automatically too.  I was on the 6:55 Green train but I was able to 'watch' the 7:00am Orange train arrive at MIA on-time.  Below you can see the 117 train at 6:32 almost at MIA and at 6:34 arrived at MIA.  The 7:00am train would have gotten me to MIA on time today!
