Hi Zach,

I have no Idea, I am not in the US. I believe there is a S743 around that is designed for the US market.

Cheers,
Brett.

My name's spelled z a c h, but that is ok.  I was talking on the
mpower, but not in cell phones.  That's all right and great to
know; what company are you using?

Hi Zack,

I don't think that the point.  If streets are close enough to
the railway,
Sendero will think your on them, but this isn't really practical
use when
on a train.  However, setting your GPS to only announce the
Transportation
category will alert you to the train stop your approaching, if
you want
that much information.  Other wise, just set the destination to
the stop
prior to the one you need and turn off all other notifications
and you
will get an alert when you need to get off.  These are two
practical ways
to use GPS on a train.

Cheers,
Brett.

Hello fellow list members,
  I just got off a railroad in the Albuquerque, NM area.  I
wanted to
share my experiences with you regarding the previous weeks talk
about
using GPS on railroads.  Basically, what I think: The GPS turned
out
accurate half of the time; the other half it still showed that I
was on
neighboring streets or near "unnamed." I even recorded some of
the route
with the Mpower, but it was not as clear as I hoped it to be.

Have a good rest of the week
