“I’ve always found the route and times to be unclear. Would love to ride it but just never quite know when and where it is or goes.” | “I’ve always found the route and times to be unclear.

Would love to ride it but just never quite know when and where it is or goes.” |     "After news that the downtown trolley may cut some neighborhood routes, we asked on Instagram whether our followers ride the trolley. Most of the 60+ commenters said they would love to, but aren’t sure when + where to find it. There’s a trolley tracker app available to download, but commenters said it doesn’t always show the trolley’s updated location."

One time I was on it, the tablet was running, but the Syncromatics server wasn't updating location for one of the trolleys.

Too bad no one has started up a Sigfox provider in this area. That's exactly what our application could use - just picking up our beacon broadcasting small messages for a fraction of the cost of wireless cellular. Someone has provided service in Charlotte, Atlanta, and Memphis. https://www.sigfox.com .. Maybe we could start this in the city and pay for it by selling the service to anyone?
