An update about the LIRR app
My custom, iPhone optimized webapp for interfacing with the LIRR scheduling system has been offline for a few weeks following a complete overhaul of the MTA’s LIRR scheduling software.
Although their new scheduling system looks similar to the old site, it seems to be a complete rewrite. Unfortunately, this totally broke my app. I worked hard rewriting my parsing system to interface with the new site and I actually finished about half of it before I ran into a show stopping problem. I’d rather not say what the exact problem I ran into is, but I will say that I am still attempting to work around the issue.
For now (long overdue, I know), I replaced my app with a message concerning the breaking of the app as well as a link out to the official MTA site.
