Thoughts on Track Predictions (and our Track Predictor)
Thoughts on Track Predictions (and our Track Predictor)

Play it safe! Please do not descend to track level until your train has been announced. |
In case you have not yet seen the visual walk-through of how it works, please visit this page.
We do not guarantee that we will predict your track with 100% accuracy. But we do our best to de-stress your evening. Our algorithms leverage our historical databases and real-time feeds from the transit providers.
As a result, we:
- Limit the potential number of in-scope tracks to a reasonable number of choices
- Eliminate tracks that will not be used for a given train
(our eliminate processing is based on recent actual usage...so when a track is removed as a choice in the app, you have high confidence of where the train will not be)
Tip: The accuracy of the prediction improves as the official departure time nears.
In addition to our algorithms, the commuters play a part, too!
- Form your own thesis! Use the slider to add/remove days of history to/from the forecast.
- Look at the details and the summary to formulate your best guess
- Press Cast Your Vote button to tell other commuters "The train is here!"
Remember: Most staircases serve two tracks...so that may improve your chances of beating the crowds.
Easy on the eyes :)

Why we say “Please do not share track numbers”
Why we say “Please do not share track numbers”
We know the commute is stressful…and it’s tempting to post (and ask for) track numbers via the free app. But it just doesn’t work for large audiences such as ours.
Why not? You’d get messages about trains you don’t ride and You’d get lots of duplicate messages
Read on…
Between Hoboken and NY Penn (NJT) or Atlantic, NY Penn, and Hunterspoint (LIRR) ….there are many trains leaving the terminal each night. Therefore, if people started posting track numbers for every train, three things would happen
- you would get messages about all trains…all night long
- you would get multiple messages about each train
- you would get messages about trains at stations you don’t use
It quickly becomes untenable.
I don’t mean to be sales-y…but we do indeed offer an automated track-number delivery service (text, e-mail or both)…for only the trains you ride.
Remember: Once the track number has been delivered to your phone, you have that info even after it’s been removed from the departure board.
We also have technology which predicts your track number. See it all here: clevercommute.com/premium.

But wait…there’s more: our technology can ALSO alert you when there is general trouble on your line.
In a related feature, we warn you when 30% of the overall trains listed are on STAND BY.
