track the train's progress from my laptop in a cafe or other wifi spot while waiting to board in Portland.
the iphone app will tell you estimated arrival times... but not "where it is" When we are on the train, we use maps on the iphone to see the train (it takes a second to figure out we are on the tracks.)
